This is just a comma-separated string, so in your transform map, you can do something like this:

var arrayUtil = new ArrayUtil();

var targetList = target.u_it_owners;

var sourceList = source.u_it_owners;

var sourceListArray = new Array();

sourceListArray = sourceList.slice(',');

var targetListArray = new Array();

targetListArray = targetList.slice(',');

var newListArray = new Array();

for(var i=0; i<listArray.length; i++){

        if(arrayUtil.indexOf(targetListArray, listArray[i]) == -1){

                  newListArray .push(listArray[i]);

        }

}

target.u_it_owners += newListArray.toString();

Hi Nikhil,

Are you trying to add to it to the existing list? . What is the expected Source Field value? Comma separated String with Sys_ids? If yes, Below should work. If not please describe more?

var arrayUtil = new ArrayUtil();

var targetList = target.u_it_owners.split(',');

var sourceList = source.u_it_owners.split(',');

resultList=arrayUtil.concat(targetList,sourceList);

target.u_it_owners=resultList.join(',')

Thanks

Hi Srini,

Actually I am trying to add to existing list where some users are already present.I want to first match whether user is already present in IT Owners list or not if it is present then I will ignore him or else I will add him.

I tried solution provided by you earlier but it is not working.

Please assist me through it.

Nikhil:

Something like this?

var ownersList = u_it_owners.split(',');

u_it_owners = new ArrayUtil().unique(ownersList);

See if that works.

Steven.
