copy variables to work-notes

I have a script that seems to be working fine, but I need to tidy it up a bit.

For the moment the business rule copied the variables on the requested item to the comments [work-notes]

But as you can see its not very tidy. Is   there a way to get only the variables the customer selected to show rather than all the variables on the form?

Current script is

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

// Add your code here.

var wn = 'Variables:';

for (key in current.variables) {

var v = current.variables[key];

wn += '\n' + v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel() + ': ' + v.getDisplayValue();

}

current.comments = wn;

})(current, previous);

Kind regards

Try the below code. I am setting it to description. It pulls only filled variables



toDescription();


function toDescription() {


  var notEmptyVars = [];


  var v;


  var desc = '';


  /* Put all variable values and labels from the variable pool into an array */


  for (var i in current.variables) {


      v = current.variables[i];


      /* Only include non-empty variables, and exclude Label and Container variables */


      if (v != '' && v != 'false' && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 11 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 19 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 20) {


          desc += v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel() + ': ' + v.getDisplayValue() + '\n';


      }


  }


  current.description = desc;


}

This is the code you kindly sent me, I can't see a BR



Shall I swap the /n for a BR?




toDescription();



function toDescription() {



var notEmptyVars = [];



var v;



var desc = '';



/* Put all variable values and labels from the variable pool into an array */



for (var i in current.variables) {



v = current.variables[i];



/* Only include non-empty variables, and exclude Label and Container variables */



if (v != '' && v != 'false' && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 11 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 19 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 20) {



desc += v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel() + ': ' + v.getDisplayValue() + '\n';



}



}



current.description = desc;



}

var desc = '';


/* Put all variable values and labels from the variable pool into an array */


for (var i in current.variables) {

/* Only include non-empty variables, and exclude Label and Container variables */


if (v != '' && v != 'false' && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 11 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 19 && v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().type != 20) {

Hi,

We have recently upgraded to London and the above BR no longer copies the variables from a catalog item into the RITM Description field.  This worked fine in Jakarta, just wondering if anyone else has had an issue?
