Hi All,

I am having a sample change requests field (list type) in table A. When the record on table A gets closed, I am triggering a change task to create. I need to populate change request (reference field) value with the values from the sample change requests in table A. As its  a list type, I need to display any one of the sample change request from the list.

Please find the screenshot below. I am getting the sys id of the change request but its not getting set to the change request field on change task. Kindly suggest any changes

hi @Mohit Kaushik i have upload a screenshot above . basically i want to get the data(change request number ) from step6 and set it into step7 (field name is change request).

sir change request record generate successfully fine. and also change task is also created when i have apply only parent but when i apply both field change request and parent that time it is not created

Hi @Aman66,

As i said earlier, scripting is not required. You just have to set the value in change request field as you are setting in parent field. Instead of choosing Trigger-> Requested Item you have to choose value from step 6 -> change request record. 
Hope that should help you.

hi @Mohit Kaushik  i am choose like the way change request  ->   6 - change request ->number than the flow execution showing complete but did not create the change task

Yes, for the field the backend name is change_requests. 

Trigger record is whenever the record on table A gets closed, then change task gets created.

On the change task the change request backend name is change_request.

 

With the script , 

var chngreq=fd_data.trigger.current.change_requests.getDisplayValue();
return chngreq;
 
I am able to get the change request number(checked it  through logs), but it is not getting assigned to change_request reference field on change task.
