Need help dot walking in assignment script for Assigned to.

[taylor21]

Hi all,

I am attempting to create an assignment rule that sets the "Assigned to" field to the "Opened for's" Business Partner which is a value populated in their HR Profile. The Opened for field is a reference to the user table. I'm a beginner with scripting so I am looking for some assistance on how to populate the current record's "Assigned to" field with the Opened for's Business Partner using an Assignment rule or a Matching rule. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Something like this would work. Replace the u_business_partner with whatever your custom field is named (since I don't see Business Partner field on my hr_profile table).

(function (){
	var profileGR = new GlideRecord('hr_profile');
	profileGR.addQuery('user', current.opened_by);
	profileGR.query();
	if (profileGR.next()) {
		current.assigned_to = profileGR.u_business_partner;
	}
})();

Hi Taylor, 

I have not worked on HR tables yet. Below one is the code of Erik and is edited.

Create a before BR on your current table. Check Insert and Update as required.

var profileGR = new GlideRecord('hr_profile'); profileGR.addQuery('user', current.opened_by); profileGR.query();

if (profileGR.next()) {

current.assigned_to = profileGR.u_business_partner; }

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Archana

Ah forgot the "query" line... I've edited my code. Thanks for catching!
