How to add Requested item name field in Catalog Item Approval page?

ramireddy · ‎01-08-2016

Hi,

I wants to show "Name of the item requested" field also in Approval page. Currently it's showing only "Request" number. But I wants to display the items as well that are requested as part of this request in Approval page. For example, If a "Computer" is requested as part of a REQ0001, I wants to show the name of the item "Computer" as well, while approving.

I know, we can add fields by Personalizing form layout. However, I am not able to find the "fields", where request items can be displayed.

Hi Ram,

I have done a small change in the above code. Please use the below code

test();

function test()

{

var itemname='';

//gs.log("Approval For"+current.sysapproval);

var gr=new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");

gr.addQuery("request",current.sysapproval);

gr.query();

while(gr.next())

{

itemname+=(','+gr.cat_item);

// gs.log("itemname"+itemname);

}

current.u_item_name=itemname;

//gs.log("in"+current.u_item_name);

current.update();

}

This works fine if the new filed u_item_name is of type List. When you place order for multiple items this will return multiple item's name in the Approval form.

Thank you,

My original requirement was to show/hide an existing field, based on this item. I am able to do it through a UI Policy, which called a script include.

Thanks
