Hi Prabhakar,

Can you try the below script once. Just make sure that your variables names are correct.

//Initialize an answer array to be returned

var answer = [];

var gr = new GlideRecord('u_it_service_request_nrp');

gr.addQuery('u_emp_site', current.variables.u_hgstsz);

gr.addQuery('u_item', current.variables.u_laptop);

gr.query();

while(gr.next()){

  answer.push(gr.Ping Zhou); //Please make sure that Ping Zhou is the exact name of the catalog variable

}

Hi pradeep,

Ping Zhou is the user name need to assign for approval

[Pradeep Sharma]

Little confused. So you want to hard code the user for approval?

[siddharth29]

pls find the screen shot, requirement is like if user selects

(1)HGSP-laptop-request should go to approver1

(2)HGST SZ-laptop-request should go to approver2

(3)HGST SZ-laptop-request should go to approver3

(4)HGSP-Hardware-request should go to approver4

(5)HGST SZ-Hardware-request should go to approver5

(6)HGST SZ-Hardware-request should go to approver6

like that based upon the "site" field selection and below check box selection the approver will change.

hope u got it pls suggest me
