How to skip a workflow timer (using admin only ui action)

https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=232ec3eddb9cdbc01dcaf3231f9619fa

go to sys_trigger

look for name contains WFTimer

try and locate by name contains sysid of the active timer record; failing that, search for the matching next action field on date/time stamp

update the sys_trigger.next action to a few seconds from now

watch the workflow execute

UI ACTIONS ON wf_executing table:
---non-client ui action redirect:

var url='/sys_trigger_list.do?sysparm_query=nameLIKE' + current.sys_id + '&sysparm_list_mode=grid';
action.setRedirectURL ( url ) ;



UI Action - client script version:
client=true
onclick=go_to_trigger()


function go_to_trigger(){
//alert('hello'+g_form.getUniqueValue());


var grTr=new GlideRecord('sys_trigger');
grTr.addQuery('nameLIKE' + g_form.getUniqueValue());
grTr.query();
if (grTr.next()){
//alert('in GR');
var url = new GlideURL('/sys_trigger.do');
alert('Redirecting to trigger with sys id=' + grTr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sys_id', grTr.sys_id);
//url.addParam('sysparm_table', 'sys_trigger');
g_navigation.open(url.getURL(), "_blank");
}
}
