What kind of record is it? If it's a request, normally it's not a record producer, but a catalog item. And requests rarely have any variables, since those are filled in to create a requested item. 

And with a record producer, you often already map fields from the producer to the record, so those don't have to be copied as variables, but can just be a simple copy.field = current.field in the script.


Please mark any helpful or correct solutions as such. That helps others find their solutions.

Hi @triveni8 

Are you looking to implement a "Copy Request" button in an Action Widget (likely in Service Portal), which when clicked:

  • Retrieves variables from an existing request (RITM).

  • Prefills the Record Producer form with those variables.

  • So the user doesn’t have to re-enter all the data again.

    Please confirm ??
