I've created a client script to populate fields onChange from a custom table. The field is returning a sys_id and not locating the vendor name.
How can I return the display value for the sys_id
Here is my client script:
function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}
var existingVendor = g_form.getValue('existing_vendor');
var venRec = new GlideRecord ('u_business_impact_analysis'); //Look at BIA table and find existing vendor
venRec.addQuery('u_vendor_name', existingVendor);
venRec.query(mycallback);
function mycallback(venRec){
while (venRec.next()){
//Populate form txt fields from BIA table.
g_form.setValue('system_owner', venRec.u_system_owner);
g_form.setValue('asset_type', venRec.u_asset_type);
g_form.setValue('product_scope', existingVendor);
}
}
}
Table:
The Vendor Name is a string field for when a new vendor is entered and i'm attempting to retrieve the display value of this field in the client script.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I found a solution to get the display values as needed. I had to set the value for each variable in an if statement.
Thank you for your assistance.

Select Boxes, Do you mean check boxes?
If checkboxes, you can set their values by using
if (my condition matches)
{
g_form.setValue('checkbox1',true);
}
If you are talking about dropdown, g_form.setValue('dropdown1','myvalue');
