Hi,

Hope you are doing well.

I have an 'attachment' type variable in my record producer. When the user uploads any attachment, I want the attachment to get saved in the record created. But instead, it is hiding it.

I can see the entry created in sys_attachment but not on case,

How can I remove ZZ_YY before copying. I written this business rule 

Async - insert. it's not working. can you help?

If I remove this zz_yy from sys_attachment manually from the table then it's adding the attachment on the case.

Hi Ankur,

I am also using the same code but For me the attachment is showing twice in the header.

Below is the code.

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

    // Add your code here
    var gr = new GlideRecord("sys_attachment");
    gr.addQuery("table_name", "ZZ_YY" + current.getTableName());
    gr.addQuery("table_sys_id", current.sys_id);
    gr.query();
    if (gr.next()) {
        gr.table_name = current.getTableName();
        new global.VariableUtil().copyAttachment(gr.sys_id, current.getTableName(), current.sys_id);
        gr.update();
    }


})(current, previous);

 

I tried with The below code and its is working as expected.

 // Add your code here
   var attach = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');
    attach.addQuery('table_name', 'ZZ_YY' + current.getTableName());
    attach.addQuery('table_sys_id', current.sys_id);
    attach.query();
    if(attach.next()){
        attach.table_name = current.getTableName();
        attach.update();
    }  

According to the whole conversion. I think this is the final working script. So have you added this script in the script section of the RP or used as a BR. If used as a BR what's the "when to run" condition you have used". Can you please help me on this


Hi @Ankur Bawiskar,

Thank you for the post about removing ZZ_YY prefix from the attachment name.
I have tired this for one of the requirement for attachment variable in catalog item.

The solution is working whenever we attach/upload one file for attachment variable. But, it's not working whenever we replace the attachment with another one it's not working. I mean the first attachment is getting updated in request instead of second/latest attachment.

Can you help me on this?
