HAVING 1=1 - jessburd 6 years ago

Sorry, I wasn't very specific. I was referring to the angle brackets around the CHANGE_ID variable in this line:
/* latest change ***/ JOIN HD_TICKET_CHANGE C ON C.HD_TICKET_ID = HD_TICKET.ID
AND C.ID=<CHANGE_ID> - chucksteel 6 years ago

Based on what I have been learning from here and Quest support, I have a question about where CHANGE_ID is being declared. In a ticket rule, the needed ID is declared in the select statement where the Update statement tells how to use that variable. Since CHANGE_ID is being called in the select statement here, where is it being declared so that it knows what to use as the change_id? - jessburd 6 years ago

Thank you, Chuck, for all the help that you have provided. I have been asking a lot of questions lately so I appreciate your time and attention to these matters. - jessburd 6 years ago
