Populate Assignment group based on service offering and location in servicenow
I want to update the assignment group to a particular assignment group when the condition fulfills on RITM ie. service offering is xyz and location is abc, then it should update.
For example, there is one catalog item that is being raised by GETit and RITM is generated with an assignment group. I want to update that value when the matching conditions are fulfilled.
I tried using assignment rules but again it doesnt work if the field has already a value and in my case assignment group already has a value, we just need to update it.
Can someone please help me here.
- What’s setting the assignment group in the first place already? If it’s a workflow, then change the logic in the workflow to match your criteria, if it’s an assignment rule, then give your new rule a lower order so it takes precedence – Nick Parsons Commented Jun 12 at 13:16

Assigned to and Assignment group
The Assigned to [assigned_to] field is a reference field type that points to the Users [sys_user] table. This field is generally used to designate a user to work on, or be responsible for the task. By default, this field has a reference qualifier (role=itil) set on its dictionary record that prevents any non-itil user from being assigned to a task. You can override this reference qualifier on tables that extend task though, as the Project Task and Service Order tables do, if you have the relevant plugins installed.
The Assignment group [assignment_group] field serves pretty much the same purpose. The reason for having both, is that a workflow might automatically assign a certain type of task ticket to a group, ...

ServiceNow Advanced Reference Qualifier | How to filter the Assignment group based on Assigned To
Been in a predicament in ServiceNow, where you know the person a task needs to be assigned to, but don’t know the right group? I got you!
In this video, we add an advanced reference qualifier on a dictionary override on the assignment group fields (for incidents) that calls a server side script include to run some funky glideRecord queries and return as back a refined list of group sys_id’s. Its then these groups that are shown when you click the Assignment Group magnifying glass.

How do I find Assignment Group id and User id in ServiceNow?
A unique 32-character GUID identifies each record in ServiceNow (Globally Unique ID) called a sys_id.
sys_id of a record is important when writing a script, workflow, or other development tasks.
Here are ten different methods to find the sys_id of a record in ServiceNow:
Right-click or hamburger You can right-click the header bar of most forms and find the sys_id.
To get a sys_id from the header bar:
Navigate to the record where you are looking for a sys_id.
To get a sys_id from XML
- Navigate to the record where you are looking for a sys_id
Right click the header bar and select Show XML. Alternately you can also click the Hamburger > Show XML
Since the sys_id of a record is always part of the URL for a link to that record, it is possible to retrieve the sys_id by viewing the URL.
To get the sys_id from XML
Right-click the header bar and select Copy URL. Alternately you can also click the Hamburger > Copy URL
For example, an Incident with the following URL:
https://<instance name>.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=incident.do sys_id=23dc968f0a0a3c1900534f399927740e
The sys_id is : 23dc968f0a0a3c1900534f399927740e
- Add an onload client script to show a sys_id function onLoad() { var incSysid = g_form.getUniqueValue(); alert(incSysid); }
The sys_id value of a record can be found in a business rule (or any other server-side JavaScript)
The sys_id value of a record can be found in a background script. Note: Test in a development instance first!
Login as an admin
Go to System Definition > Scripts - Background
Paste a script similar to this and click Run Script
By adjusting the url of a record, you can add this URL Parameter to export the sys_id and all fields to CSV
Navigate to the list of records where you want to find the sys_id
Build your filter
Right-click the Filter, and select Copy URL
Paste the URL into a new browser window
Add &CSV&sysparm_default_export_fields=all to the end of the URL
A CSV file with all fields AND the sys_id is exported.
Here is a creative way to use the Easy Import Template to export the sys_id data you are looking for.
Right click the header bar and select Import. Alternately you can also click the Hamburger > Import
Do you want to insert or update data? Update
Do you want to create an Excel template to enter data ? True
Include all fields in the template? True or False, your choice
Click Create Excel Template
Click Download
Open the Excel Spreadsheet
Select Page 1
If you are using the ServiceNow ODBC Driver and a reporting tool, you can pull the sys_id field information easily.
If you are using the ServiceNow Rest API , you can also pull sys_ids

Report Showing Tickets Passed Back to My Assignment Group
I'm looking for some assistance with ServiceNow reporting logic, hopefully this forum can help!
I'd like to create a report in ServiceNow that shows tickets that were previously escalated from a particular assignment group, and have since been reassigned to the same assignment group.
A ticket sitting in the Service Desk assignment group is sent to the Networking assignment group. A technician from Networking adds some work notes, and then sends the ticket back to the Service Desk assignment group.
I'd like this to be a report, as I want to add a widget to a Dashboard that shows the number of tickets that have been reassigned to the originating assignment group.
Any advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Cause. Upon investigation, it was found that this is happening due to the majority of the Groups in the list having a particular Parent Group.

However, the benefits user group does not show up on the list of valid assignment groups for WFA tickets (sn_hr_core_case_workforce_admin). It only appears in HR Benefits Case tickets (sn_hr_core_case_benefits). I checked the reference specification for the assignment_group field.
