Set a field value of a field same as another field

[Amit Dey]

Hi , I wanted to put  field values of short description field to a custom field of incident table in every record , in form view it is working , but in list view custom field is showing empty in every record

[Aman Kumar S]

var grIncident = new GlideRecord("incident");
grIncident.query();
grIncident.setValue("custom_field_name", grIncident.getValue("description"));// update your custom field name and replace custom_field_name
grIncident.updateMultiple();

hi , custom field is still showing empty 

[Aman Kumar S]

Can you share screenshot of the list layout and dictionary form for the custom field.

[Amit Dey]

here it is 

I am just doing for learning purposes in PDI

Why have you selected the field as display true in your dictionary form?

Numbers are display for incidents.

Apart from it logic is intact, what happens if you set the field manually?
