Refresh the form in server side

[Hemachithra]

Hi, I want to refresh my REQ form automatically once the request is created as the approvers in the approval tab appears only after I refresh it manually .

Here is something that I created in the past. It resided in a Client script and it was refreshing the related list of my choice. here is the script with a delay of 4 seconds. check if you can adapt this to your case. 

if(!g_form.getValue('contract')){
		return;
	}

	setTimeout(function(){ 

		if(!g_form.isNewRecord()){

			var listName =g_form.getTableName()+'.REL:70e80f390a0a0b1b0035a51d8bbfd32c';
			var list = GlideList2.get(listName);
// 			if (list){
// 				g_form.addInfoMessage('List selected');
// 			}else{
// 				g_form.addInfoMessage('List not selected');
// 			}

			var filter = 'contract='+g_form.getValue('contract')+'^end_date>=javascript:gs.beginningOfToday()^start_date<=javascript:gs.endOfToday()';
			list.setFilterAndRefresh(filter);
		}

	}, 4000);

with the GlideList2 api you have some method that can help you refresh only the related lists
