will the attachment be carried to the Catalog task whatever I attached in the catalog item?

divyadhanda · ‎10-31-2025

I have an attachment and i have added via catalog item view and it s available in the RITM after creating a request, but it s not present in the Sctask. How can i bring in Sctask ?

@divyadhanda

you can use after insert business rule on sc_task to copy attachment from RITM to SC Task

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {

    new GlideSysAttachment().copy('sc_req_item', current.request_item, 'sc_task', current.sys_id);

})(current, previous);

Hi @divyadhanda ,

I tried your problem in my PDI and it is working fine for me please create one OnBefore Business Rule which works when sc_task inserted and add below script

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

	// Add your code here
	var ritmId = current.request_item;

    var att = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');
    att.addQuery('table_sys_id', ritmId);
    att.addQuery('table_name', 'sc_req_item');
    att.query();

    while (att.next()) {
        GlideSysAttachment.copy('sc_req_item', ritmId, 'sc_task', current.sys_id);
    }

})(current, previous);

Result:

RITM have attachment

Same attachment got attached to sc_task

Please mark my answer correct and helpful if this works for you

Thanks and Regards,

Sarthak

Can we use Before insert BR or After insert BR?

Can we do this catalog item specific? Only for a particular catalog item, this BR should get execute.
