I must be doing something wrong then, I would think it would be the short description:
change request fields
task fields
I have the following code on the request task:
On table: sc_task
UI Action: Create Change and link from EIS Request
***************************
createChange();
function createChange() {
current.link = true;
current.rollup = true;
current.update();
action.setReturnURL(current);
var link = new GlideRecord("u_eis_task_link");
link.initialize();
link.parent = current.sys_id;
var changeRequest = new GlideRecord("change_request");
changeRequest.short_description = current.short_description;
link.eislinked_task = changeRequest.insert();
new EISTaskLinkUtils().copyChangeInfoToLink(link, changeRequest);
link.insert();
gs.addInfoMessage(gs.getMessage("Change Request {0} created", changeRequest.number));
action.setRedirectURL(changeRequest);
}
***********************************
The code above is to produce the link below on the task
The following scrip include:
EISTaskLinkUtils
***********************************
var EISTaskLinkUtils = Class.create();
EISTaskLinkUtils.prototype = {
initialize: function() {
},
/**
* Copies all the required data from the Change record to u_eis_task_link record
* 1. If the time is not in the schedule then the first time in the schedule after time
* 2. If the time is in the schedule then the first time in the schedule for the next day
*
* Usage
* var EnhancementTaskManagerUtil = new EnhancementTaskManagerUtil();
* var calculatedStartDate = EnhancementTaskManagerUtil.copyChangeInfoToLink(link, change);
*
* @method copyChangeInfoToLink
* @param {object} link : destination record from the table "u_eis_task_link" to be filled by this function
* @param {string} change : source record from the table "change" to be filled by this function
**/
copyChangeInfoToLink: function(link, change) {
link.short_description = change.short_description;
link.description = change.description;
link.state = change.state;
link.active = change.active;
link.time_constraint = "start_on";
if (!change.start_date.nil() && !change.end_date.nil()) {

I might be doing this wrong but that's the code I'm using for this. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Osvaldo
when I open the change form layout, I see the following:
If I add that to the form, I get the following:
The linked task should be showing up further in the bottom under the page
