    var fields = [{
        type: 'choice',
        name: 'invoice_type',
        label: getMessage('invoice type'),
        value: getMessage(' -- Select -- '),
        choices: [{
            displayValue: '',
            value: ''
        }],

    g_modal.showFields({
        title: "Product for Invoice",
        fields: fields,
        size: 'lg'

        g_form.setValue('short_description', fieldValues.updatedFields[1].value);
        //<--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->//	
        var ga = new GlideAjax('CDAInvoiceProcessor');
        ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getInvoiceTypes');
        ga.getXML(populateChoiceeField);

        function populateChoiceeField(response) {
            var msg = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute('answer').toString();
            if (msg != '') {
                msg = msg.split(',');
                if (msg.length > 0) {
                    g_form.clearOptions(fieldValues.updatedFields[0].name);
                    g_form.addOption(fieldValues.updatedFields[0].name, '', '-- None --');
                    for (var i = 0; i < msg.length; i = i + 2) {
						fieldValues.updatedFields[0].value= msg[i];
						fieldValues.updatedFields[0].displayValue= msg[i+1];
                       
                    }

Hi,

what are you returning from script include?

are you returning array OR array of JSON object containing label and value?

Regards
Ankur

[Sironi]

script-include returning array

[chat,Chat,voice_call,Voice Call,walk-in,Walk In,email_fire,Email Fire]

var DWN = new GlideRecord("u_customer");
DWN.addQuery("u_active", true);
DWN.addQuery("u_name", "Customer Specific Type");
DWN.addQuery('u_customer',' b70c0f830f37330013a831ef68767e33');
DWN.query();
if (DWN.next()) {
PARMS = DWN.u_parms.split(',');
gs.info("PARMS " + PARMS.length + "--" + PARMS);
for (var i = 0; i < PARMS.length; i++) {
var choice = new GlideRecord('sys_choice');
choice.addQuery('name', 'incident');
choice.addQuery('language', 'en');
choice.addQuery('element', 'contact_type');
choice.addQuery('inactive', false);
choice.addQuery('value', PARMS[i]);
choice.query();
if (choice.next()) {
value = choice.value.toString();
label = choice.label.toString();
CHOICEVALUES.push([value, label]);
}
}
}

return CHOICEVALUES.toString();
},

Hi,

update as this and it should work

share the updates

Script Include:

var arr = [];
var DWN = new GlideRecord("u_customer");
DWN.addQuery("u_active", true);
DWN.addQuery("u_name", "Customer Specific Type");
DWN.addQuery('u_customer',' b70c0f830f37330013a831ef68767e33');
DWN.query();
if (DWN.next()) {
	PARMS = DWN.u_parms.split(',');
	gs.info("PARMS " + PARMS.length + "--" + PARMS);
	for (var i = 0; i < PARMS.length; i++) {
		var choice = new GlideRecord('sys_choice');
		choice.addQuery('name', 'incident');
		choice.addQuery('language', 'en');
		choice.addQuery('element', 'contact_type');
		choice.addQuery('inactive', false);
		choice.addQuery('value', PARMS[i]);
		choice.query();
		if (choice.next()) {
			var obj = {};
			obj["value"] = choice.value.toString();
			obj["displayValue"] = choice.label.toString();
			arr.push(obj);
		}
	}
}

var result = {};
result["choices"] = arr;

return JSON.stringify(result);
},

Workspace client script:

function onClick(g_form) {

	var fields = [];
	fields.push({
		type: 'string',
		label: getMessage('Invoicer'),
		value: g_form.getDisplayValue('consumer'),
		readonly: true,
	});

	var ga = new GlideAjax('CDAInvoiceProcessor');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getInvoiceTypes');
	ga.getXML(populateChoiceeField);
	function populateChoiceeField(response) {
		var msg = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute('answer').toString();

		var answer = JSON.parse(msg);

		fields.push({
			type: 'choice',
			name: 'invoice_type',
			label: getMessage('invoice type'),
			value: (answer.choices && answer.choices.length > 0) ? answer.choices[0].value : '',
			choices: answer.choices,
			mandatory: true
		});

		g_modal.showFields({
			title: "Product for Invoice",
			fields: fields,
			size: 'lg'
		}).then(function(fieldValues) {
			g_form.setValue('short_description', fieldValues.updatedFields[1].value);
			//<--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->//	


			//<---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->//	

		});
	}
}

		readonly: true,
	});

	var ga = new GlideAjax('CDAInvoiceProcessor');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getInvoiceTypes');
	ga.getXML(populateChoiceeField);
	ga.getXMLAnswer(populateChoiceeField);
	
	function populateChoiceeField(response) {
		alert(response);
		var msg = response;

		var answer = JSON.parse(msg);

		fields.push({
			type: 'choice',
			name: 'invoice_type',
			label: getMessage('invoice type'),
			value: (answer.choices && answer.choices.length > 0) ? answer.choices[0].value : '',
