Catalog Client Script to set reference field to current user

[matthew_strecke]

I am working on a SC item and I need to populate the name field (reference field) with the current user when a certain item is picked on the SC item. This is my code so far but I can't seem to get it to work. Any suggestions?

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

  if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

  return;

  }

  var myself = g_form.getValue('voicemail_for_who');

  var id = g_form.getValue('name');

  if(myself == 'Myself') {

  var user = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

  user.addQuery('sys_id',id);

  user.query();

  if (user.next()) {

  g_form.setValue('name', user.name);

  }

  }

}

Try using the client-side GlideUser, e.g.

g_form.setValue('name', g_user.userName);
