Hi @karunasrikuna,

To auto-populate fields based on the "Requested for" field in a ServiceNow catalog item using the Out-Of-The-Box (OOTB) feature:

Use Auto Populate Feature
1. Navigate: In your catalog item, go to the variable form for each variable you want to auto-populate (Email Address and Manager).
2. Auto Populate Configuration:
- For Email Address:
1. Open the Email Address variable.
2. Scroll to the Auto Populate section.
3. Set Reference qualifier to the `Requested For` field.
4. Use the script: `javascript:current.variables.requested_for.email`
- For Manager:
1. Open the Manager variable.
2. Scroll to the Auto Populate section.
3. Set Reference qualifier to the `Requested For` field.
4. Use the script: "javascript:current.variables.requested_for.manager"

By using the OOTB Auto Populate feature in the variable form, you can easily configure the `Email Address` and `Manager` fields to auto-populate based on the `Requested For` field in your ServiceNow catalog item.

 

Thank you, please make helpful if you accept the solution.
