Create Different Task Titles from One Catalog Item

[delawareang31]

Is there a way to create different Catalog Task Titles based on the variables that are selected when the user is filling out the Catalog Form?  For example, if there was a Time Off Catalog Form with options for 'PTO' and 'Unpaid Time Off' could I have the Task Title of the Catalog Task that is created to dynamically be 'PTO Request' or 'Unpaid Time Off Request' depending on the option selected?

Hi @delawareang31 

As far as I know, we can't do it. However, you can try below alternatives :

• Info message on change of PTO type variable that displays a comment about the type of PTO being applied by user
• Field message on change of PTO type variable that displays text below the field.
• An alert popup stating the PTO type on change of PTO type variable that the user has to actively dismiss before proceeding.
• Keeping a field for description and changing it on change of PTO type variable.

Thanks and Regards

@Amit Verma it most closely resembles your last point - dynamically updating the short description of the catalog task based on the choice of 'PTO' or 'Unpaid Time Off'.  Thank you!

Hi @delawareang31 when you say Task titles, do you mean task short description?

@Harish KM - Yes, that's correct.  I want to dynamically change the Short Description of the Catalog Task based on variables that are selected in the Catalog Form.  Thank you!
