g_form in UI Action

[Jaeik Lee]

I made custom Reference field in RITM table, and UI Action.

In UI Action, i tried to get values in RITM. but i failed.

this is my code :

var itemVal = g_form.getDisplayValue('cat_item');

var moduleVal = g_form.getDisplayValue('u_request_module');

var typeVal = g_form.getDisplayValue('u_request_type');

And this works well :

var itemVal = g_form.getDisplayBox('cat_item').value;

var moduleVal = g_form.getValue('u_request_module.u_module');

var typeVal = g_form.getValue('u_request_type_label');

Why g_form.getDisplayValue Did not worked?

Hi @Jaeik Lee 

To get a Choicelist/DropDown list display value

For regular forms, use this:

var disp = g_form.getDisplayBox(“field_name”).value;

In the Service Catalog, you may have to use this instead:

var varDisp = g_form.getDisplayBox(g_form.resolveNameMap(“variable_name”)).value;
