Hi Team, I want to alert when Assigned To field is changed. For that I have return onChanage Client Script on Assigned To field.

______________________________________________________________________

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }

    alert(newValue);

}

But when  Assigned To field is changed, I'm getting Sys Id of user in Alert..

Hi @captsiddu ,

Since you want the newValue (not yet saved into the database), you can use,

alert(g_form.getDisplayBox('assigned_to'));

Hi Animmesh, I did little changes to your code and it worked fine.

alert(g_form.getDisplayBox('caller_id').value);

Thank You!!

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }
    alert(g_form.getReference('assigned_to').name);
}
