Issue

Access referenced fields in a notification record against the Approval table



Resolution

Procedure


In a notification record against the Approval [sysapproval_approver] table, you can dot-walk to fields on the associated record through the Approving [document_id] field, which is a reference to the associated record.

For example, if the associated record is a Request [sc_request] record, you can click the Approving field, whose system name is document_id, and then dot-walk to the sc_request field you want to use in the notification record:


Example of dot-walking to a field named delivery_address on the referenced table:

Delivery address: ${document_id.delivery_address}
