Create Project: How to move data from the demand to the created project?

Bob Waltrip · ‎01-15-2019

Hi,

When I create a project from a demand, most of the data copies over to the newly created project. But, for the "Description" field, it is not copied. The Description field on the project is blank. How can I get this field to copy over during the create project?

Also, if I create a custom field on the demand, how do I get that data to copy over to the project. I assume I create the same field on the project as the first step but not sure how to tell the system to copy this data during the copy project.

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Bob,

You need to map column names between demand and project.

Please modify script include with below

project.setValue("u_pgroup",demand.getValue("u_pgroup"));

Also, Please make sure that your type of demand is saved as"project" before clicking on "Create Project" UI action.

Sachin

Hello Manal,
It gets triggered via the UI action 'Create project' which calls AjaxCreateRelatedEntityFromDemand which in turn calls DemandToProjectCreationHelper
