Assign value to document_id field using script

[G Balaji]

Hi,

We're creating a profile(GRC module) from our custom table. While creating a record in profile table using scripts, "applies_to" field(document_id data-type)  is not getting populated if I assign sys_id of the record.

How to create record in profile table using scripts?

Thanks.

Hi,

To be able to use a document_id field you also need to have a table field on the table so it know which table the sys_id belongs to. 

Here is a good example how to setup that: Document ID field | ServiceNow Docs

and here is a good example how to write the script: How to set a value to a document ID field using script - Developer Community - ServiceNow Community

Thanks for the response, Goran.

Documentid field could be dynamically constructed ie. table name + sysid and saved in a string field?

Since table has already been created, now I don't have liberty to modify the table design(technically yes, but not in business perspective).

There's a field name Table in sn_grc_profile table and i set the field to the current table name and set applies_to to the record's sysid.

Above steps helped me to set the document id.
