How to display group name instead of sys_id

[Brandon R1]

I'm using a Lookup Select Box variable for a 2nd approval in my catalog item. This variable is referencing the sys_user_group table and I have a reference qualifier specifying the 3 groups to be referenced for the drop-down selection in the variable on the form.

In order for the workflow to stop (instead of automatically skip) at this "Approval - Group" activity, the lookup value field for the variable has to be the Sys_ID instead of Name. For the Lookup Select Box field on the form, I need it to display the group names NOT the Sys_IDs.

I think the best way to achieve this is to use a Catalog Client Script but I'm unsure of how it should be written. Can someone help me with this??

Thanks,
Brandon

Lookup value field should be name in your selection.

You can set the "lookup label field" field to be "Name".

I had tried this but it broke the workflow.

Instead of using Lookup Select Box, how about using Reference type? Reference type will enable to  display Name field and still use sys_id.
