Hi,

I am using the MRVS and need to sum the value of the hard drive's size as shown in the pic.

I would appreciate if anyone can give me a clue.

Hi there,

You would have to place a "Total size" variable outside the MRVS for this. Unfortunately though, you would want to calculate that field on the moment you are adding a row. Though, from within the MRVS, you can't influence variables outside the MRVS.

You could think of a workaround. For example, on submission of the Catalog Item, the Total Size will be calculated and the Variable filled. If help needed on this, I can have a look. We have a similar workaround in place. 

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,
Mark

Business Rules - Code:


(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

var grMRVSAnswer = new GlideRecord('sc_multi_row_question_answer');
grMRVSAnswer.addEncodedQuery('parent_id=' + current.getUniqueValue() + '^item_option_new=eb9e71af07b5101074cef2508c1ed0be');
grMRVSAnswer._query();


var totalInt = 0;
while(grMRVSAnswer._next()) {
gs.info('--> Value TEST MATERIALS' + totalInt.value);
if(grMRVSAnswer.value != '') {

var amountInt = grMRVSAnswer.value.replace(',', '.');

totalInt = parseFloat(totalInt) + parseFloat(amountInt);
}
}
gs.addInfoMessage('start must be before end');
current.variables.u_total = totalInt;
current.update();


})(current, previous);
