Auto assign 'Catalog Tasks' with requested item 'Assigned to' field

Hello everyone,

I am new to ServiceNow scripting and need some assistance. I have created a Service Catalog Item called 'Informatics Reports' which allow users to request a report to be created for them. Once the request has been submitted, the supervisor will assign the Requested Item to a member of her team.

Within the requested item, there are several catalog tasks that need to be completed. I would like these catalog tasks to be automatically assigned to the same individual that the supervisor assigned the requested item to. 

I have attached two screenshots to reference what I am talking about. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Thank you for your time!

 

From,

Chris

Hi Chris,

 

This can be acheived by selecting the advanced checkbox on the catalog task activity and update as below. Hoping that your manager is updating the assigned to before a task is being created

 

task.assigned_to = current.assigned_to in both of your task
