Hello team,
How can the location be automatically displayed by the user in the catalog item? What type do I have to add?

Many thanks

Hi,

So you'd create a reference variable that points to the location table, then you can set the default value of that variable to be:

javascript:gs.getUser().getLocation();

Which will automatically place the location of that user in that field for you.

Please mark reply as Helpful/Correct, if applicable. Thanks!

Hi,

Above code will populate the location from user table, If that user have location entered.

To check location field have value or not.

Navigate to sys_user.list and open particular record and check location field.

Thanks,

Dhananjay.

Hi,

Please add the location field to your form so that you can populate it with an appropriate value.

From that screenshot, you can use the context menu or right-click the gray header area and choose "configure > layout" and then select the location field from the left and move it to the right and add it to your form. Save, then return to this form again and pick the location.
