Hi All,

I came across a scenario which I never seen and not sure how to achieve this. If you have any idea please share you thoughts

I have a order guide with 2 variables requested for reference to user table and other single line text variable.

I have 5 rule bases as 5 cat items

in cat item 1 I have multiple variables in that one is Location variable

Now based on user selected in order guide requested for I want to filter location field records.

Any thoughts how I can get order guide requested_for to location reference qualifier?

I have script include ready which is working just need to pass selected user.

I have tried javascript&colon; new userDetailsUtil().getDetails(current.variable.requested_for);

If my inputs have helped with your question, please mark my answer as accepted solution, and give a thumb up.

Hi,

Would you have a user reference field on the catalog item (not the guide)? If so, you'd pass the value, via the ruleset to that catalog item taking the value from the order guide. From there, you'd have the user and can then look at their location, etc.

Please consider marking my reply as Helpful and/or Accept Solution, if applicable. Thanks!

As far as I know, the only way you can do this is by resorting to variable cascading.

This means the same variables will be defined on both the order guide and the catalog items included.

The values entered on the order guide will be copied to the variables in each Catalog Item.

You can hide or show the variables to which the copying is done on the Catalog Items as needed using UI Policies.

Of course than on each Catalog Item you can build the reference qualifier as usual using only local variables.

@-O- @Allen Andreas thanks for those ideas with your ideas I have created new variable in cat item and using item variable assignments in rule base. I have passed the value to item from order guide.

Thank you once again for that idea.

My thinking was onchange client script on order guide and call script include and trigger event

in item reference qualifier call script include check event parameter to pull id. But with your idea I am able achieve this with extra variable.
