Pulling the display value of a reference field into a string field...

[_-jasonr-_]

Hello All,

I am currently working on a form where I need to get a sys_user reference and then display the values into string fields on said form.

The following code gets the reference data, but when I set the values into the form, the location and department reference fields place the sys_id into the field.

function onLoad() {

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

  var reqName = g_form.getReference('u_reference_1', setEnhUserFields);

}

function setEnhUserFields(reqName) {

  g_form.setValue('u_string_3', reqName.user_name);

  g_form.setValue('u_string_4', reqName.phone);

  g_form.setValue('u_string_5', reqName.email);

  g_form.setValue('u_string_6', reqName.department);

  g_form.setValue('u_string_7', reqName.location);

}

Is there any way to get the display value of the location and department reference field display values into the string fields on the enhancement? Do I need a script include?

Thanks.

You might be able to dot walk to them:

g_form.setValue('u_string_6',reqName.department.name);

g_form.setValue('u_string_7',reqName.location.name);
