Kifrez · ‎12-09-2020

Hi everyone,

Could you please assist me how to set default value of a variable?
I need user 2's manager to be the default value (Screenshot below)
This script is only get user who is opening the form.
Thanks in advanced for your assistance.

javascript:gs.getUser().getManagerID()

Hi,

If you want to set default value then set for both the variables

If on_behalf_of is auto-populated with logged in user then

This should work for the manager variable

Is that not working as expected? Did you check logged in user has Manager or not

javascript:gs.getUser().getManagerID()

HI,

javascript&colon;gs.getUser().getManagerID() returns "undefined" (even if the currently logged in user has Manager).

Is there any other way how to get Manager of currently logged in user as a default value?

Thank you.
