Need user name instead of sys id for a user from sys user table

[Renu9]

Hi,

As per a requirement need to display the requested for field of a Request , but as of now sys id of the requested for field is displaying and not name.

My script is on UI action, where g_form.getValue(requested_for) is not working and also getDisplayValue is also not working.

 Display is checked in configure dictionary for the field.

Please help us how to resolve it. Need to get display name of the reference field

Hi,

to get the display value of a reference field on client side, Use the below

g_form.getDisplayBox('<field name>').value
