The  Common Requested Item  document is an XML schema that contains default fields for mapping Requested Item form values from one system to another.  The common requested item format mirrors what one would see of the Requested Item form with related lists expressed in embedded XML form. Embedded records Embedded records  are fields in the Common Requested Item document that cannot be mapped by singular values. Instead, they are entirely different records  embedded  inside the Common Requested Item document to be created on the subscribing system. Deactivate each of the transform scripts in PSP Common Requested Item to Requested Item if you choose not to parse these embedded objects into records. If you need to extend or add additional capabilities, instead of modifying the existing scripts, add new ones so that upgrades are possible. The following are examples of the embedded records in Common Requested Item:  Approver Record The  approver  field in the Common Requested Item is an embedded record that, when populated, will create a new requested item on the system receiving the Common Requested Item. Table Map Source Field Definition created Date the record was created on approver_name Name of the approver assignment_group_name Name of the assignment group approver Unique record identifier of the approver record state State of the approval comments Comments of the approver approver_email Email of the approver assignment_group Unique record identifier of the assignment group record Attachment Embedded Record The  attachment  field in the Common Requested Item is an embedded record that, when populated, will create a new requested item on the system receiving the Common Requested Item. Table Map Source Field Definition data Attachment data in an encoded string format size_bytes Measurement of how much the attachment data contains file_name Name of the attached file  sys_id Unique record identifier of the attachment content_type Attachments content type (i.e jpeg, png, txt, etc.)  Catalog Task Embedded Record The  catalog task  field in the Common Requested Item is an embedded record that, when populated, will create a new requested item on the system receiving the Common Requested Item. Table Map Source Field Definition assignment_group Unique record identifier of the assignment group order Number of the task order number Number of the task work_end Date the record was finished short_description Short description of the catalog task  assigned_to Unique record identifier of the user assigned to the task work_start Date the record was started Group Approval Embedded Record The   group approval  field in the Common  Requested Item  is an embedded record that, when populated, will create a new  requested item  on the system receiving the Common  Requested Item . Table Map Source Field Definition approval Status of the catalog task's approval approval_user Unique record identifier of the approval user assignment_group Unique record identifier of the assignment group short_description Short description of the group approval Common Requested Item Sample A sample  Common Requested Item  looks like this: <common_requested_item>
