Hi,

The user who submitted the request? OR any user reference variable you have in your catalog form

Hi,

you can use IF activity in workflow and check that

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript(){

	var isMember = gs.getUser().getUserByID(current.variables.variableName+'').isMemberOf('Group ABC');
	
	if(isMember)
		return 'no'; // take this output to next activity
	else
		return 'yes'; // take this output to approval activity

}

Hi Ankur,

it's not work for me so i written below script(still approval trigger whether user related to group also)

answer = preapprovalcheck();

function preapprovalcheck() {

var user = current.variables.name;

var grMem = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');
grMem.addQuery('sys_id', user);
grMem.addQuery('group.name', 'Software');
grMem.query();
if (grMem.next()) {

return 'yes';

} else {
return 'no';

}

}
