Hello Team,

I was testing one of the catalog item in UAT- I realized that catalog task was not getting assigned to assignment group automatically. Which should not be the case.

As to fix this, I went into the catalog item maintain- found the catalog item- click the workflow- checkout — click on catalog task property — and updated the fulfillment group and click on update. When I tested this again- the catalog task is not getting assigned to assignment group field. this still shows blank,

What am I missing? I followed all the steps please help me out.

Thanks!

Girish,



In your code line below you need to specify actual sys_id of the group instead of 'SYSID of group'. In order to get Sys_id go to a group right click and select Copy sys_id and paste in your script.



task.assignment_group = 'SYSID of group';


HI Pradeep,



I did the same, Copied and replaced SYSID of group to sys id.



when I checked the same catalog task- it does not show the task is moved to assignment group, Do I need to create another catalog task or it should reflect in the same?  



Also this the below script should remain same:



task.short_description = current.short_description;


task.description = current.short_description;


task.assignment_group = ''; (pasted the sys id number here)


// task.assignment_group = getAssignmentGroup();


Girish,



Create a new one and see if the Assignment group is populated.


Can you copy and paste the code as is here.


// Set values for the task in this script.   Use the variable 'task' when setting additional values.


// Note: This script is run after the task values are set using the Fields, Template or Values you have specified.


//


// For example:


//         task.short_description = current.short_description;




task.short_description = current.short_description;


task.description = current.short_description;


task.assignment_group = '55c2958a4f0822006896e3414210c7a5';


// task.assignment_group = getAssignmentGroup();






function getAssignmentGroup(){




  var sb = new GlideRecord('u_routing_rule');


  sb.addQuery('u_catalog_item',current.cat_item);


  sb.addQuery('u_variable_value',current.variable_pool.application);


  sb.addQuery('u_service',current.variable_pool.u_technical_service);


  sb.query();


  if(sb.next()){


  return sb.u_assignment_group;


  }



  /*var group = getGroup();



  if (group != "") {


  return group;


  }


  var assign_to = new GlideRecord('u_workflow_task');


  assign_to.addQuery('u_catalog_item', current.cat_item);


  assign_to.query();



  if (assign_to.next())


  {


  return assign_to.u_assignment_group;


  }


  else


  {


  return gs.getProperty('assignment.group.none');


  }



}




function getGroup() {



  var helper = new USDRoutingEngine();



  var myParameters = {};



  myParameters.u_catalog_item = current.cat_item;


  myParameters.u_variable_value = current.variables.application;


  //myParameters.u_service = current.variables.u_technical_service;


  var rule = helper.getRouting(myParameters, helper.FULFILLMENT_TYPE, '');


  if (rule != '') {


  return rule.u_assignment_group;


  }


  else {



  var myParam = {};



  myParam.u_catalog_item = current.req_item;


  var noLocationRule = helper.getRouting(myParameters, helper.FULFILLMENT_TYPE, '');


  if (noLocationRule != "") {


  gs.log('alternate assignment group found.','Rodney');


  return noLocationRule.u_assignment_group;


  }


  }



  return "";


}
