Enforce max number of rows displayed in lists

might be needed for performance reasons

to do this: go to system properties > UI properties > edit the "Items per page' drop-down options (comma separated, no spaces):" box


fix script to tidy up old user preferences:
--------------------------------------------------

updatePreferences('name=rowcount^value>=20^value!=20');
updatePreferences('value=100');

function updatePreferences(sQuery){
var grUserPreferences=new GlideRecord('sys_user_preference');
grUserPreferences.addQuery(sQuery);
grUserPreferences.query();
gs.print('TOTAL: ' + grUserPreferences.getRowCount());
//grUserPreferences.setValue('rowcount',  '20');
//grUserPreferences.updateMultiple();
while (grUserPreferences.next()){
grUserPreferences.value='20';
grUserPreferences.update();
gs.print(grUserPreferences.user.name + ' updated');
}
}

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 ; } } }
