Hi,

 

Hope you are creating catalog task from the Workflow. Open the Catalog Task activity inside the workflow and perform the following action:

1) Check Advanced Checkbox

2) Add below script inside Advances script:

var temp = current.variables.application_being_requested.getDisplayValue();
var requested_by = current.variables.requested_by.getDisplayValue();
if (temp == "version1")
{
     task.short_description = "version1"+requested_by;
}
else if(temp == "version2")
{
     task.short_description = "version2"+requested_by;
}
else
{
     task.short_description = "version3"+requested_by;
}

 

Thank you,
Palani

@poco 

in case you are writing the script in workflow catalog task activity to set task short description then script shared by @palanikumar  should work fine.

Please try that.

What would be the script for updating RITM short description after updating SCTASK short description?  I am not well versed in scripting yet and will need help.  All we are needing is after short description is updated on SCTASK (manually by tech), that the short description of the RITM is updated to reflect.
