add RITM number in task description?

[SNnewbie2]

How do I add RITM number inside of my task description.   I know I have to add the code inside of the workflow activity:

task.description = ???

what is the difference between a business rule and an script in the workflow activity?

Why did you use parent?

If you are wanting to create a Catalog Task [sc_task] record from a Workflow Activity using the Advanced script options, then you can use the following syntax:

task.description += 'RITM Number: ' + current.number;

Since the workflow is running from the Requested Item [sc_req_item] table, all you need is the number from that current record.

I hope this is helpful.
