Hi there.

Is it possible to do this kind of customization for custom class properties?

For example, I've added Relationship to Active Directory Group

</RelationshipType>

...

</TypeProjection>

and want to display those Incideтt Tickets where populated Assignment Group contains current user.

What should I write as a path for GenericProperty tag?

Thanks in advance.

Disregard window pane scrolling issues. That was unrelated to this.

The fix worked. The key is make sure to save the MP as a .xml file after you switch the code out. Also, make sure to import it back in. And then do NOT make any modifications to the view criteria for "...Assigned to me" views.

Good Luck

Ok, if you increase the size of the window pains it works to see all the work items. But does not let me use the scroll bars when the window is smaller. Very weird. But the view is now working as I wanted it.

This worked for me. I followed the EXACT steps as above. You do not need to update the view and add [mygroups] to the view query. IT seems the MP XML file change does that automatically and links the [my groups] automatically. However, Here is the issue I ran into. The view when opened shows the work items assigned to me and my groups. But the pane appears to be frozen. I can not scroll up nor down. I can filter and select work items that I can see on the pane, but I can not see all the fields due to it not letting me scroll left, right, up, or down. Weird.

I'm having the same problem. Was there a solution to this?

Can you please email your mp containing the view to scsmbeta@live.com

Yes, the out of box view for viewing IR's assigned to me. Users and groups have been imported from AD using the connector. I am assigned to one of the groups and when logged in as me, I only see what is assigned to me and not my groups. After updating the management pack with the "mygroups" token, if I look at the view in the work items UI, the criteria has red asterik next to it but it still sees work items assigned to me just not mygroups.

There are no errors of any kind.

Does the Out of box view work as expected? Have you imported the users and groups using the AD connector?

If you have all the users in the system, then assign the user to a group. Login as a user in the group and you should see the incident in the view.

When you say the view does not work, does it show any error or just not show the items you expect to be there.

I can't seem to get the "mygroups" token to work, it's almost as if the "mygroups" doesn't exist. I have tried subing the "mygroups" token for the "me" token and it doesn't run the query after importing the MP. I am editing the system.workitem.incident.assignedtome view Below is a sample of the code. Also, I should mention that this is a test environment, so we can evaluate Service Manager against our current solution. What am I missing?
