Why the request for field is populated with the current login user

[Alon Grod]

When I created a new catalog item request, the request for field of the sc_request table is populated automatically with the current login user instead of the taking the value from the request for variable. How can I make sure that this field will populate automatically with the request for variable from the catalog item. Again, Im talking about sc_request table.

@Alon Grod ,

I have noticed in my PDI, default value for "requested_for" variable has set to loggedIn user, so it has came from there

@Rahul RJ hi, i double checked and there is no default value on this field. I tried to create on before insert BR on the sc_request table and now when submitting a request using catalog item the requested for field is not populated at all (empty). Before the BR it was populated with current login user. 
what am I doing wrong?

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

  // Get the requested for variable value from the catalog item request
  var requestedFor = current.variables.requested_for;
  
  // Populate the requested for field on the sc_request table with the requested for variable value
  current.requested_for = requestedFor;

})(current, previous);
