RudhraKAM · ‎10-20-2018

Hello I have a Requirement were on the catalog item we have a field call "product_user " up on request in the work flow we need to write a if condition to check if the user is among any mentioned 6 groups , if yes then it should go for an approval for a particular user if not no ,,

can some one help me with the code

you can try something like this.

i am adding one script for one group and you can add other groups to check by adding "OR" || operator.

var ourUser = gs.getUser().getUserByID(current.variables.product_user);
answer = ifScript();

function ifScript()
{
if(ourUser.isMemberOf(put group sysid/name in single quote) || ourUser.isMemberOf(put second group sysid/name in single quote) || ourUser.isMemberOf(put third group sysid/name in single quote))
{
return 'yes';
}
return 'no';
}

note: you can add as much condition in if block by using || operator to check the group

You can check using gs.getUser().isMemberOf('assignment_group'); //Give assignment group name

Hello Kam,

use below statement to check product user group.

gs.getUser().getUserByID(current.variables.product_user).isMemberOf("group_sys_id");

verify field name for product user.

Add script like below:

var gr2 = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');

gr.addEncodedQuery(" add encoded query of all the 6 groups")

gr2.query();

while (gr2.next()){

var groupsys = gr2.sys_id;

gs.log('The GroupSys ' +groupsys);

}

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

gr.addQuery('group', groupsys);

gr.addQuery('user',current.product_user );

gr.query();

if (gr.next()) {

gs.log('query ran');

gs.log('This person is ' + gr.user + ' is a member');

}
