Problem with changed Excel table headers in reports

  • 1.  Problem with changed Excel table headers in reports

    Posted 06/28/21 07:56 AM

    Hi,

    I running scheduled weekly reports which send Excel tables back to our team email address. Each table is then copied into another excel table which copies the important columns - using the column header for identification - to a new sheet for a presentation. 

    Since last week 3 important column headers have been changed

    Case Number -> Ticket Number Lookup

    Current Severity -> Severity

    Case Hours -> Total Hours

    Unfortunately I was on vacation and and the automatic selection of important columns failed.

    Who can tell be more about this change ?

    Why was this change implemented ?

    Where was the change announced ?

    I would like to prepare before such changes next time.
