Hi.
I was recently tasked with finding a way to populate a field on one form from another form. After doing some research, I learned that setting up a business rule was the best way to achieve this. On Form A, there is a tab named Audit that holds the Audit Engagement number.
Form A:
In the next section below, there's another tab named Remediation tasks. The ask is this: when a user clicks the New button from the Remediation tasks, the Parent field from the Remediation task needs to be populated with the Audit engagement number.
I put together the following script but have not had any luck:
(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
// Only run if the issue field is set and parent is not already set
if (current.issue && !current.parent) {
var issue = new GlideRecord('sn_grc_issue');
if (issue.get(current.issue)) {
// Set parent to the sys_id of the audit engagement referenced by the issue
current.parent = current.issue.sn_audit_engagement;
current.update();
}
}
})(current, previous);
When I run the script I get the following error:
Evaluator.evaluateString() problem: java.lang.RuntimeException: failed to coerce com.glide.script.fencing.ScopedGlideElement to desired type java.lang.String: com.glide.script.fencing.ScopedFunctionObjectTypeHandler.coerceFunctionArgument(ScopedFunctionObjectTypeHandler.java:180)

Any help someone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks @folusho for your reply. I tried but that did not work. Also, I wanted to give a little more information. I have the rule set to run before and I have the Insert button checked:
