Hi there,
I have created a record producer that creates an idea and I would like to pull through some of the inputs from the variables into the idea_description field but, this field is an HTML field and so the text appears without any formatting.
I'm looking for a solution to display the variable text, one line per variable instead of a continuous string of text. This is the code I use and this works for the description field of other record producers like incident and change:
//set idea description of incident - it will overwrite values from template from "Generated Record Data" tab.
current.idea_description = 'Category: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('category') + "\n";
current.idea_description = 'Business Unit: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('business_unit') + "\n";
if (producer.getDisplayValue('more_business_unit') == 'Yes') {
current.idea_description += 'Business Unit 2: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('business_unit_2') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Business Unit 3: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('business_unit_3') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Business Unit 4: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('business_unit_4') + "\n";
} else {
current.idea_description += 'More than one Business Unit: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('more_business_unit') + "\n";
}
current.idea_description += 'Change Sponsor: ' + producer.getDisplayValue('sponsor') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Description of Change: \n' + producer.getDisplayValue('describe_your_change') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Problem resolved by Change: \n' + producer.getDisplayValue('change_resolve_problem') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Business Benefit: \n' + producer.getDisplayValue('change_business_benefit') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Change implementation impact: \n' + producer.getDisplayValue('change_impact') + "\n";
current.idea_description += 'Known risks if not implemented: \n' + producer.getDisplayValue('change_risk');
This how the text displays in within the idea description field:
This is how I would like it displayed:
Should I just encapsulate the javascript within div and paragraph elements?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, I have the exact same question. Record producer where the variable responses will dump into the HTML body of a KB Article, with each variable on its own line. Can't imagine there's not a way to make this happen these days. Thanks!
