Pull reference variable value into email notification

I'm trying to pull in the display value of my reference variable 'vend_name', but will not work.   The 'Requested For First Name' is pulling in as expected:

Hello ${request.requested_for.first_name},

Your request for a New Mexico Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate (NTTC) for ${current.variables.vend_name.getDisplayValue()} has been completed. Please find attached the certificate for your use.

Nicole, you don't need to use a mail script and that is causing the extra line.   Use the following instead:


Hello ${request.requested_for.first_name},


Your request for a New Mexico Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate (NTTC) for ${request_item.variables.vend_name} has been completed. Please find attached the certificate for your use.


Thank you,

This is what I had initially before I added 'getDisplayValue', and was not working.


Hi Nicole,



are these variables on a request Item? If so you will need to write a mail script in order to pull them in


I tried the following script:

And this in my notification:



Hello ${request.requested_for.first_name},


Your request for a New Mexico Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate (NTTC) for ${mail_script:nmnttc.vend_name} has been completed. Please find attached the certificate for your use.


</mail_script>




Still no go


Hi Nicole,



attached is the mail script we use to pull in a variable to a notification. Hope this helps

Nicole, you really don't need a mail script to accomplish this.   Can you please:


  • Provide table name that your notification is using
  • Post a screen capture of your variable?   I need to see the name of the variable.
  • Confirm you can see this variable in the variable editor on the task


Thanks
