I have created a 'custom with label' field named 'pick month'.

or

This field is connected to a widget which is coded to take input type month.

How to map this field with the backed table field type string

@Asif_Jawed 

you need to store the value of it in some hidden variable and then use that hidden variable in script to map it with target string field

you cannot directly access value of html box or any element from widget in workflow or any other script as it's in UI

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

How to do that?

@Asif_Jawed 

for that you need to define some onclick event on that html element and store the value inside some string variable on that catalog item

Hello Asif,

In your submit button in Service Portal, in div tag add ng-click="c.submit()"

In Client Script :-

var c = this;

c.submit=function(){
c.data.action = 'createRecord' ;
c.server.update();
}

In Server Script :-

data.newRec ={
pick-month: ''   // id of the field in html.
}

if(input && input.action === 'createRecord'){
createRecord(input.newRec);
}

function createRecord(rec){
var gr = new GlideRecord('table_name');
gr.newRecord();
gr.setValue('field_name in backend', rec.pickmonth);
gr.insert();
}
