GlideModalConfirm on an onsubmit client script (not for service portal)

This script achieves the following:
- display a user friendly modal
- return false if cancel clicked, without saving the form
- return true if OK clicked, and save the form
- return true if the conditions for displaying the dialog message are false

it's a little more tricky with onsubmit due to asynchronous transactions not being possible! [See related post for onchange client script which is asynch friendly: dialog with callback]



var _canSubmit = false; var _dialog; function onSubmit() { if (_canSubmit) { return true; } /* */ //Check for Assignment Group if (g_form.getValue('assignment_group') == g_scratchpad.assignmentGroup && g_scratchpad.serviceOfferingABC == true) { var wNote = g_form.getValue('work_notes'); //If Work note updated if (wNote != '' && wNote != null) { //Alert user to remove any Sensitive data /*replace JS confirm with nicer dialog*/


g_form.setMandatory('work_notes', false); //--don't block form submission g_form.clearMessages(); _canSubmit = false; var sMsg = new GwtMessage().getMessage('inc.work_notes_sesitive_data'); var dialog = new GlideModal('glide_modal_confirm', true, 500); dialog.setTitle('test RDS'); dialog.setPreference('body', new GwtMessage().format(sMsg)); dialog.setPreference('focusTrap', true); dialog.setPreference('onPromptComplete', doComplete); dialog.setPreference('onPromptCancel', doCancel); dialog.setPreference('buttonLabelComplete', 'OK'); dialog.setPreference('buttonLabelCancel', 'Cancel'); dialog.render(); return false; //return confirm(new GwtMessage().getMessage('inc.hoth.work_notes_sesitive_data')); }else{ g_form.setMandatory('work_notes', true); return false;
} return true; } function doComplete() { canSubmit = true; g_form.submit(); g_form.setMandatory('work_notes', false); _canSubmit = true; var action = g_form.getActionName(); if(action == 'sysverb_update_and_stay') g_form.save(); else if(action=='sysverb_update_bottom') g_form.submit('sysverb_update_bottom'); else g_form.submit(); /*if (action) { gsftSubmit(action); } else { g_form.submit(); }*/ } function doCancel() { g_form.setMandatory('work_notes', true); if (_dialog) _dialog.destroy(); return false;

ServiceNow check for null or nil or empty (or not)

Haven't tested these all recently within global/local scopes, so feel free to have a play! option 1 use an encoded query embedded in the GlideRecord , e.g.  var grProf = new GlideRecord ( 'x_cls_clear_skye_i_profile' ); grProf . addQuery ( 'status=1^ owner=NULL ' ); grProf . query (); even better use the glideRecord  addNotNullQuery or addNullQuery option 2 JSUtil.nil / notNil (this might be the most powerful. See this link ) example: if ( current . operation () == 'insert' && JSUtil . notNil ( current . parent ) && ! current . work_effort . nil ())  option 3 there might be times when you need to get inside the GlideRecord and perform the check there, for example if the code goes down 2 optional routes depending on null / not null can use gs.nil : var grAppr = new GlideRecord ( 'sysapproval_approver' ); var grUser = new GlideRecord ( 'sys_user' ); if ( grUser . get ( 'sys_id' , current . approver )){...

Code a pause/wait - gs.sleep or gs.wait alternative, pause script for specified seconds (timer)

Code a pause/wait - gs.sleep / gs.wait alternative, pause script for specified seconds (timer)  e.g. 10 seconds: do_sleep ( 10000 ); function do_sleep ( milliseconds ) { var start = new Date (). getTime (); for ( var i = 0 ; i < 1e7 ; i ++) { if (( new Date (). getTime () - start ) > milliseconds ){ gs . print ( 'waking up!' ); break ; } } }
