Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Request Equipment for New Hires Task.
- Click the equipment dropdown (for example, laptop) and observe that no options are available.
Cause

- Click Task Settings and select the relevant equipment category (for example, Laptop), then click Edit.
- Under “Add Items to the equipment category,” select Add, enter the ID and Item Name for each required item, and save.
- Run OData API Metadata Refresh And Export > Refresh Cache.
- Return to the equipment task and verify that the dropdown now lists the configured items.
