Service Catalog: variable advanced reference qualifiers

Call a script include to apply a reference qualifier on a catalog item variable:
- variable reference qualifier dependent on another variable selection, in this case a variable referencing sys_user (requested_for)
On the catalog item form.

variable name to apply ref qual filter:
retail_equipment

variable reference qualifier (on cmdb table):
javascript: new refqual_functions().lostStolen_getAssignedCIs();

client-callable script include (refqual_functions) function:

lostStolen_getAssignedCIs: function(){
        //--called from variable set client script, for lost/stolen request (service catalog)
    gs.log(current.variables.requested_for,'retail_lostStolen_getAssignedCIs');
        return ('install_statusNOT IN8,7^owned_by='+current.variables.requested_for);
       
    //owned_by=1269b79937f1060041c5616043990e41^install_statusNOT IN8,7
       
  },

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 ; } } }
