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());
    }
}

A list field contains a list of sys_id from the referenced table.  It is better to use the following a sample of code:
