How to check the value of List field in IF condition for getting related group approvals

Suzy · ‎05-12-2021

I have Functional area List field on form, FTM and DTS,ODG as values

if i select one value in Functional Area, approval should go for the related group.

for eg. If i select FTM, the approval should go to FTM Group approval only.

I have tried Switch but it is requesting approvals from all existed groups so now i am trying with IF Condition like as shown in the below image but it's not working. Please help me how to write the condition if in case need to write any script i have written below script its throwing error

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript() {
if (current.u_functional_area.indexOf('FTM')>-1) {
return 'yes';
}
return 'no';
}

Let's make double sure this array doesn't give trouble:

Use this(Added another toString() in the answer push):

var approvers = current.fieldName.toString();//Replace your field name
var answer = [];

if (approvers) {
    var approversArr = approvers.split(',');

    for (var i = 0; i < approversArr.length; i++) {
        answer.push(approversArr[i].toString());
    }
}

Hi,

This is for catalog item or you are running workflow for any table?

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript() {
if (current.u_functional_area.indexOf('FTM') !== -1) { // if exist
return 'yes';
}
return 'no';
}

Thank you
Prasad

Hi Suzy,

List fields store a comma-separated list of sys_ids for the records selected from the List table, so use the sys_id of the FTM group instead of 'FTM' in your indexOf function.
