How to add Reference Qualifier to Record Producer Variable

[Christine30]

Hello:

I have a script include which returns a list of Product Model (cmdb_model) sys_ids, and an associated dynamic filter.  I am able to use the dynamic filter to filter a List View.  I've attached the script include and related screenshots.

Now, I would like to use the same dynamic filter on a record producer variable which is a reference to the Product Model table,  but am unable to do this.  No dynamic filters are available for the record producer variable (see first screen shot below). 

I've tried to use this advanced reference filter instead of a dynamic filter :  "javascript: new getNameFromCategoryNew().getName("Laptops")", also with no success. 

I would also like to change the "hard-coded" "Laptops" argument to be the category selected by the user, and held in another record producer variable named model_category.  I have tried "javascript: new getNameFromCategoryNew().getName(producer.model_category)", but the value does not seem to be passed to the script include. 

Thank you for any help.

Do you have the logs in the Script include? What do they log when you use this?:

javascript: new global.getNameFromCategoryNew().getName(current.variables.model_category.getDisplayValue());

Make sure there are no other variables or variable set named model_category. And change global to the scope your script include is in, for example:

javascript: new scopeapp.getNameFromCategoryNew().getName(current.variables.model_category.getDisplayValue());
