how to stop passing 'special instructions' value to before sc task activity in workflow

[raj765_32]

hi can anyone help me with scenario for 

when i submit a catalog item there are three sc tasks in where i have written a code in 2 and 3 rd sc task to display some value in special instructions field.

What happening is that after i close complete 1 st sc task, the data/value written in  2 and 3 sc task is getting displayed when 1 st sc task is closed complete. 
please help me how to fix this and where to fix this in which sc task.

below is the code :
i have written this code in workflow 2nd and 3rd  catalog task activity

var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_request');

gr.addQuery('sys_id', current.request);

gr.query();

if(gr.next())

{

gr.special_instructions = "1. Complete template to request EP End User Access form Blue Yonder. \n\n2. Submit request (Medium priority) via Blue Yonder portal.";

gr.update();

}

my requirment is that special instructions value should not display in 1 st sc task when the task is completed  and what ever state it should display in 2 and 3 rd sc task only

Hi @raj765_32 ,

I think in your code you are not closing the string in while loop, when you updating the gr.

var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_request');

gr.addQuery('sys_id', current.request);

gr.query();

if(gr.next())

{

gr.special_instructions = "1. Complete template to request EP End User Access form Blue Yonder. \n\n2. Submit request (Medium priority) via Blue Yonder portal. "// You are not closing this string.

gr.update();

}

Can you please check it now 

Please mark my answer correct and helpful if this works for you

Thanks and Regards

Your code updates a field on the REQ (sc_request) record, so that will display on any/all sc_task records if this field from sc_request is added to the sc_task form.  It would be best to update a field on the sc_task record if you only want it viewable on certain sc_tasks.
