Hi Community,
How can I get the work notes/additional comments in Flow?
I want to stop the Flow if the additional comments contain 'Yes, SAP IBP tab appears in Excel menu'; otherwise, send another notification to the requestor. I used a trigger on the RITM record, but it's not working.

I think your trigger point is invalid, add trigger point like below then use 'if' condition to check for text.

I believe the trigger->additional comments won't help.
You can use Lookup Record on sys_journal_field where Journal entries are stored.
Check with name=yourTable && Element=comments && Element ID = Record SYS ID
Then use IF flow logic to see if record is present or not

In Flow Designer, you’ll want to add a condition step and point it to the Comments field. By default, the RITM trigger won’t catch journal entries, so you might need to use the “Record Updated” trigger on sc_req_item and set it specifically for changes to comments. That usually fixes the issue.
