Convert Idea to Task - add other task options

[Dan Brown2]

Hi,

On the Idea Form there is the option to 'Create Task'  which gives the option to 'Convert an Idea to task'.  The options available are either Demand or Project.

Is there a way to add other options to that drop-down - e.g. Incident/Service Enhancement?

Many thanks,

Dan

Hi @Dan Brown !

It should indeed be possible however it may be difficult to configure.

The related code involved:

"Create Task" UI Action on the im_idea_core table

"convert_idea_to_task" UI Page (the popup that is displayed)

"ImIdeaToTaskUtil" Script Include seems to be involved with the "Convert idea to task" Scripted REST Resource on the sys_ws_operation table.

I'm not too familiar with UI Page configuration but this should point you in the right direction.

Hope that helps!

If it did, please mark as Helpful and consider setting the reply as the Correct Answer to the question, thanks!

I came across some issue, where non-admin having idea_manager role is not able to see the popup(UI page) for an option to select various task type and then demand gets automatically created. For admin it is working fine with the proper popup. 

And in the csm_table_map it is active.

You need to have "idea_manager_professional" role
