How to get check box value in run script

[siddharth29]

Hi team,

I am trying to design a work flow like the below screen shot.

and in run script i mentioned script like,

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript() {

  gs.log("@@@@hgst items"+current.variables.u_computer);

  if (current.variables.u_computer== "true") {

              return 'yes';

    }

    return 'no';

}

if   "computer check box is checked by user" then the request should go the "approval group as designed in workflow".... when i kept gs log also check box value is not getting in logs.

please guide me how to get check box value if it is checked request should go approval group

thank you.

Hi Prabhakar,

Please edit your previous post and remove the password.

I tried to reproduce on my instance and it didn't worked..Later on I realized that I am doing the same mistake...:P

You should not use "Run Script" for this and it should be the "If" activity with the script as below

answer = ifScript();

    function ifScript() {

    if (current.variables.u_computer == 'true') {

    return 'yes';

  }

    return 'no';

  }

P.S : I didn't login to your instance so please make the necessary modifications.

I hope this helps

Hi Prabhakar,

Have you verified the variable's name?   Variables are not like regular table fields, I don't believe the "u_" prefix is required for variables that you've created.

Thanks,
