watch list users should be able to update the comments in incidents and RITM's irrespective of roles

watch list users should be able to update the comments in incidents and RITM's irrespective of roles. I have tried

 in PDI by writing new ACL. But it is not working. Could you please help me how to write ACL. Thanks in advance.

Hi @vallusri 

Try this one..you need to create total 4 ACL.

1. Create a Write ACL (Table level ACL) on the specific table without specifying a field

• Operation: write
• Name: incident and sc_req_item  ( 2 write ACL , you will create)
• Condition: None  //you mention your condition
• Requires Role: snc_internal

1. Create a Write ACL (Field level) for the Additional comments field

• Operation: write
• Name: incident.comments and sc_req_item.comments ( 2 write ACL , you will create)
• Script:

answer = checkWatchList();

function checkWatchList() {

        if (current.watch_list.indexOf(gs.getUserID()) > -1)

    {

        return true;

    }

    return false;

}

Hi @vallusri 

In ACL,

Type : record

operation : write

table :incident

field :Additional comments

Check the Advanced box.

In the Script field,

if (current.watch_list.indexOf(gs.getUserID()) > -1 || current.caller_id == gs.getUserID() || current.opened_by == gs.getUserID()) {
answer = true;
} else {
answer = false;
}

For RITM,

Replace the table name with : sc_req_item

if (current.watch_list.indexOf(gs.getUserID()) > -1 || current.requested_for == gs.getUserID() || current.opened_by == gs.getUserID()) {
answer = true;
} else {
answer = false;
}

Refer :End users are unable to write comments on RITMs for Requests created for someone else - Suppo...
