Hi @Pari_Neetu , 

Create a on load catalog client script and make visible the description field only for assignment group members.

@Pari_Neetu  , You want to Make Description Shown to the Assignment group Members Alone?

Hi @Pari_Neetu

 

If I understood your issue correctly, the task description field is not visible for a particular Assignment Group members. Have you checked which view they are looking into ? It might be possible that the view does not have the description field configured ?

 

Thanks & Regards

To achieve this in ServiceNow, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a Catalog Item:
- Navigate to Service Catalog > Catalog Definitions > Maintain Items.
- Click on New to create a new catalog item.
- Fill in the necessary details and click on Submit.

2. Create a Workflow:
- Navigate to Workflow > Workflow Editor.
- Click on New to create a new workflow.
- Design the workflow to close one task and create another task.

3. Associate the Workflow with the Catalog Item:
- Go back to the catalog item you created.
- In the Process Engine section, select the workflow you created.

4. Create Assignment Rules:
- Navigate to System Policy > Assignment > Assignment Rules.
- Create a new rule for each assignment group that you want the task to be assigned to.
- In the conditions, specify that the task should be assigned to the group if the task is in a certain state or meets certain conditions.

5. Control the Visibility of the Description Field:
- Navigate to System UI > UI Policies.
- Create a new UI policy for the task form.
- In the conditions, specify that the description field should be visible only if the user is a member of the assignment group.
- In the UI Policy Actions, set the description field to be hidden by default and visible if the conditions are met.

Please note that this is a general guide and the exact steps may vary depending on your specific requirements and ServiceNow version.
