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 timeout settings for virtual agent chat

  After connecting to live agent User is connected to live agent and not responding to live agent chat or distracted. The below properties controls the timeout settings, the OOB settings for reminder is [180 sec] and for cancelling the chat is [360 sec]. The job is default configured to 2 min so I believe no tweaking is required here.  Property -   com.glide.cs.idle_chat_reminder_timeout                  com.glide.cs.idle_chat_cancel_timeout Scheduled job   - Idle Chat Timer Task   https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_article&sys_id=1453b03bdbaad0109e691ea668961929   (ServiceNow ) 

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 )){...
