Variables shown in approval form

emanuelesignori · ‎06-06-2017

Hi,

I don't understand what kind of variables are shown on the Approval Form, because i've noticed that not all variables are shown.

I would like to know how to show only variables that are visible in Catalog Item view, is this possibile? How can i do this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Emanuele,

You will need to investigate the Approval Record widget. You can see this line there:

if (itemsGR)

item.variables = $sp.getRecordVariablesArray(itemsGR);

Which then is used in the body to display those:

<label>{{::variable.label}}</label>

<div>{{::variable.display_value}}</div>

</div>

Unfortunately I can't see any docs about getRecordVariablesArray and how it gathers those variables:

hi there,

I was wondering where you configure the template that is being used for each type of approval. So knowledge, Request etc.
