what is the Demand field 'approval_set'?

Tracy Davis · ‎10-15-2018

There is a field on the demand table - 'approval_set'. I'm trying to confirm if this is an OOB field? If it is, is it populated for you? and if so, what is approval set?

I'm ultimately trying to find a field that holds the approval date for the demand (not the state, the actual date the demand was approved).

I tried looking in my dev instance but doesn't look like PPM/Demand is available to activate there.

Thank you!

Played with it a bit and indeed, "Approval set" is not used in the Demand app OOB. If you want to use it, you could setup a new Business Rule on the Demand table that would timestamp the Demand record when State is set to Approved like so:

The script would be:

current.approval_set = gs.nowGlideDateTime();
