Introduction

In SolarWinds Service Desk (SWSD) Related Items is a widget that, when activated, allows users looking at the details page of an ITSM object to see related items in a pane on the right of the object's details page, rather than having to drill down through the Related tab. For example, if an incident related to a printer jam has a specific configuration item attached as a related item, the related item would display on the incident details page from both the tab at the bottom and the pane on the right. Likewise, if a problem had that same incident attached as a related item, the incident would display at the bottom of the problem details page and in the pane on the right.
