Need the count of checked check boxes in service catalog

[sumanth1]

There are 8 check boxes under one label in  service catalog.

I need to check if 1 check selected or more than 1 check box is selected.

If more than 1 check box is selected I need to display multiple string word in ritm short description.

Can any one provide script using array to acheive this.

@sumanth1 

you can determine which checkboxes are checked in the run script.

something like this to make it dynamic

var arr = ['variable1','variable2','variable3','variable4','variable5','variable6','variable7','variable8'];

var str = '';

for(var i in arr){
	if(current.variables[arr[i]].toString() == 'true'){
		// concatenate the string variable
	}
}

current.short_description = str;

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi ankur,

I need to check the count if more than 1 check box is checked I want to display multiply ministry in sd of ritm.

If one check box is selected that label need to be displayed in sd of ritm.

Here is a sample ServiceNow script that uses an array to check how many checkboxes are selected and to display multiple string words in the ritm short description if multiple checkboxes are selected:

// Get the selected checkboxes from the service catalog
var selectedChecks = [];
var checkLabels = ['Check Box 1', 'Check Box 2', 'Check Box 3', 'Check Box 4', 'Check Box 5', 'Check Box 6', 'Check Box 7', 'Check Box 8'];
for (var i = 0; i < checkLabels.length; i++) {
if (current.variables[checkLabels[i]] == true) {
selectedChecks.push(checkLabels[i]);
}
}

// Check how many checkboxes are selected
if (selectedChecks.length == 1) {
// Only one checkbox is selected, do nothing
} else if (selectedChecks.length > 1) {
// Multiple checkboxes are selected, concatenate their labels into a string
var selectedLabels = selectedChecks.join(', ');
current.short_description = "Multiple checkboxes selected: " + selectedLabels;
}

In this script, the selectedChecks array is populated by iterating through the checkbox labels and checking if their corresponding variables are set to true in the current object (which represents the current record being processed). The join method is then used to concatenate the selected checkbox labels into a single string, which is added to the ritm short description if more than one checkbox is selected.
