How can we update reference field value on table using Glide Record?

[Harshal Sonawa1]

contractNumber = 'FSD1111';

gr.setValue('u_contract', contractNumber);

gr.update();

I m trying to update using setValue() but its not working

[Ct111]

reference field require you to set "sys_id".

contractNumber = 'FSD1111';

gr.setValue('u_contract', 'sys_id_of_contractnumber');

gr.update();

Mark my ANSWER as CORRECt and HELPFUL if it helps

if you don't know what sys_id is check this link

Hi Harshal,

You can try using setDisplayValue() instead of setValue(), something like below:

var contractNumber = 'FSD1111';
gr.setDisplayValue('u_contract', contractNumber);
gr.update();

Kindly mark my answer as Correct and Helpful based on the Impact.
