set inc short description

[varma2]

Hi all,

I need to  Auto-populate Short Description with Category- Subcategory on form load  for incident. I have implemented the below code

 function onLoad() {

     var category = g_form.getDisplayValue('category');

var subcategory = g_form.getDisplayValue('subcategory');

var message = category + '- ' + subcategory;

    g_form.setValue('short_description', message);

}

If we use .getDisplayValue  the value setting as Incident Number both  Category and subcategory.

if we use getValue its setting choice value not label.
please suggest.

Thanks all

@varma2 

so you want choice label so use this

 function onLoad() {
     var category = g_form.getOption('category', g_form.getValue('category')).text;
     var subcategory = g_form.getOption('category', g_form.getValue('subcategory')).text;

     var message = category + '- ' + subcategory;

     g_form.setValue('short_description', message);
 }
