手順

1. Open an incident.
2. Right-click the Assignment group label and select Configure Dictionary.
3. If the form appears in Default view, under Related Links, click Advanced view.
4. In the Use reference qualifier field, ensure that the Advanced option is selected.
5. In the Reference qual field, enter javascript:new ReferenceQualifierHelper().backfillAssignmentGroup().
6. Save the record.
7. Navigate to System Definitions > Script Includes.
8. Click New.
9. Name your script includes as ReferenceQualifierHelper to match the Javascript in the following step.
   This name ensures the API Name is generated correctly, based on the Name field.
10. Script includes with the following JavaScript code.
    Ensure that the Accessible form field is properly set for the environment.

    var ReferenceQualifierHelper = Class.create();
    ReferenceQualifierHelper.prototype = {
    	
    	backfillAssignmentGroup:function() {
    		var assigneeGroupsQualifier = '';
    		var assignee = current.assigned_to;
    		
    		//return if the assigned_to value is empty (this causes all groups to be returned)
    		if(!assignee)
    			return;
    		
    		//sys_user_grmember has the user to group relationship
    		var grAssigneeGroups = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');
    		
    		grAssigneeGroups.addQuery('user',assignee);
    		grAssigneeGroups.query();
    		
    		while(grAssigneeGroups.next()) {
    			if (assigneeGroupsQualifier.length == 0) {
    				// Create the beginning of the qualifier and add the 1st group
    				assigneeGroupsQualifier = 'sys_idIN' + grAssigneeGroups.getValue('group');
    			}
    			else {
    				// build a comma separated string of groups if there is more than one
    				assigneeGroupsQualifier += (',' + grAssigneeGroups.group);
    			}
    		}
    		// return Groups where assigned to is in those groups we use IN for lists
    		
    		gs.log('DP: RefQual = ' + assigneeGroupsQualifier);
    		
    		return assigneeGroupsQualifier;
    	},
    	type: 'ReferenceQualifierHelper'
    };

To test, create an incident and select a user in the Assigned to field. Click the Assignment group lookup icon. Only the groups that contain the user you selected appear. For example, you assign an incident to Bob Smith, who belongs to the Database group and the Networking group. The only options that appear in the assignment group are Database and Networking.
