# Customize fields copied from Universal Request to incident

Customize which fields are automatically copied from a universal request to an associated incident record. This eliminates manual data entry each time you create an incident.

## Before you begin

Role required: incident\_manager or admin

## Procedure

1.  In the navigation filter, enter `sys_properties.list` and press the Enter key.

2.  Search for and open the system property **sn\_inc\_uni\_req.incident.universal\_request.copy\_fields**.

3.  In the **Value** field, enter the universal request field name and the corresponding incident field name.

    For example, `caller_id=opened_for` means that the value of the caller\_id field from the universal request form is copied to the opened\_for field in the incident form.
