You could easily do this using a join form between PBM:Known Error and PBM:Known Error Associations. Create the form as an outer join with the associations form on the right. You join criteria will be $Known Error ID$ = 'Request ID02' AND 'Request Type01' = "Infrastructure Change". Add the Known Error ID field and Request ID02 fields to the form. When you do a search, it will show a record for each Known Error record. If there is a match in the associations table, it will also bring that information in as well. If there is no match, then any fields from the associations table that you put on the join form (Request ID02 in this case) will be NULL. So to find all Known Errors that don't have a corresponding change, just search for all the records in the join form where one of the association fields (Request ID02) is $NULL$. That will show all Known Errors that don't have a corresponding relationship record to a Change.

** Here's a quick stab at how I'd do it. I'm not sure if you're trying to show this info in a report or in a form, but basically you want to compare records in PBM:Known Error against PBM:Known error Associations. Then search against Request ID02 where it does not match Known Error ID and Request Type equals Infrastructure Change.

We are using Known Errors to track bugs and enhancements to in-house software. We associate corrected KEs to change requests as a Release. I am trying to find KEs that are not associated to a change (release) to make sure that they are addressed and don't fall through the cracks. I can easily find which ones are associated to a change by looking at the Associations forms, but I am stumped on how to find ones that are NOT associated. We are on ARS 7.1 and ITSM 7.03.
