Hi @nameisnani ,

 

You have to utilize notification email scripts to pull out the variables of the catalog item.

Create new record in notification email script as below:

SN_Learn_0-1718857107122.png

 

Then call the above script in notification as below:

SN_Learn_1-1718857167572.png

 

${mail_script:scriptName}

@nameisnani 

you are using the wrong syntax to get variable value

the correct syntax is current.variables.variableName

update as this

(function runMailScript( /* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
    /* Optional EmailOutbound */
    email, /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,
    /* Optional GlideRecord */
    event) {

    var requester = current.variables.requested_for.getDisplayValue();
    var date = current.variables.date_item_was_lost_stolen.getDisplayValue();

    email.setSubject(current.variables.short_description_1);
    template.print("<p>A lost or stolen device has been reported by " + requester);
    template.print("<p>The device was lost or stolen on " + date);
    template.print("<br />");
    template.print("Description:" + current.variables.description_1);



})(current, template, email, email_action, event);

You are missing the variables before the varible, have a look at updated code

(function runMailScript( /* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
    /* Optional EmailOutbound */
    email, /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,
    /* Optional GlideRecord */
    event) {

    var requester = current.requested_for.getDisplayValue();
    var date = current.variables.date_item_was_lost_stolen.getDisplayValue();

    email.setSubject(current.variables.short_description_1);
    template.print("<p>A lost or stolen device has been reported by " + requester);
    template.print("<p>The device was lost or stolen on " + date);
    template.print("<br />");
    template.print("Description:" + current.variables.description_1);


})(current, template, email, email_action, event);

In the sc_req_item table check both conditions that you have mentioned.

Secondly, Is there anyone defined in the 'Who will receive'?
