[siddharth29]

Hi,

can any one guide how to assign an approver by using script in work flow(run script)

I had written some code, pls check and tel me if am wrong

var desc = task.description;

var startDate = current.variables.colleague_start_date;

if(startDate != null && startDate != ''){

    task.description = "Colleague Start Date: " + startDate + "\n\n" + desc;  

}

  if(current.variables.u_emp_site == "u_hgstsz" && current.variables.u_items == "u_laptop")

  {

  current.sysapproval_approver.approver= "0526160bb4c6f500b47b0c26378dccee";

}

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)HSPC -laptop-request should go to approver3

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

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

(6)HSPC-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

Hi Pradeep,

Have you also created a field for storing the approver in the custom table? if not pls create a reference field named 'u_approver' referencing the sys_user table and store the appropriate approver for each combinations. Then try the below script,

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();

if(gr.next()) {

answer = gr.u_approver;

}

Okay.. Then just try the code I gave in my previous response. It should work. Ensure all the variable names are correct.

Please mark the response as helpful/correct answer as appropriate.
