If condition always returns no.

[ajohn]

Hello everybody,

I am trying to create an if condition within a service catalog workflow. The advanced script looks as follows:

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript() {
if (current.variables.delivery_address == "Test") {
  return 'yes';
}
return 'no';

}

It returns always no, even thoug I type "Test" in the Delivery Address field in checkout screen. It doesn't matter, which variable (u_cost_center, price etc.) of the requested item i use. It returns always 'no'.

Hopefully anybody can tell me, why it's not working.

Thanks a lot and best regards

you condition should be

if (current.request.delivery_address == "Test") {

as deliver address is on request form

Thank you very much!

Could you also tell me please, how the script must look like, when the delivery address field contains a line break?

I tried something like:

if (current.request.delivery_address == "Line1" + '\n' + "Line2") {

or

if (current.request.delivery_address == "Line1" + '\br' + "Line2") {

Unfortunately it does not work.

use regex to remove the line breaks

var someText = current.request.delivery_address

someText = someText.replace(/(\r\n|\n|\r)/gm,"");

if(someText == 'YOUR_STRING_VALUE')
