Client script for manager's manager

[User_267]

We have two fields- user ,  manager's manager.

In user field - if we enter abel tutor name approval will trigger to Abel tutor manager.ex: abhraham lincoln (configured through flow)

In manager's manager field- it should be trigger to abhraham lincoln manager.

Need client script for this. It should autopopulate manager's manager based on user field.

        var manager_name = '';
        var userID = this.getParameter('sysparm_caller_id');

        var userGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
        if (userGR.get(userID)) {
            manager_name = userGR.getDisplayValue("manager");
