RITM Closure and user notification

Swetham

Hello All,

 

I have a requirement to close out all the RITMs from a given list and the corresponding requests should also be set to the states and stages given in requirement

 

The requestor has to be notified with a close code comments stating " Your approval is rejected as it is long pending with the approver".

 

Below code is updating states and stages but comments is not getting updated.

 

@Anurag Tripathi Please advise.

 

try {
    var closeRITM = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
    // Adding encoded query to filterout records from list provided by incident management team to set state as close d incomplete.
//sample data
    var strQuery = 'number=RITM0003241';
    closeRITM.addEncodedQuery(strQuery);
   // closeRITM.setLimit(1);
    closeRITM.query(); 
    while(closeRITM.next()) {
closeRITM.setValue('work_notes',"Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.");
closeRITM.setValue('comments',"Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.");
       closeRITM.setValue('state',4);
closeRITM.setValue('stage','complete');
closeRITM.setValue('active','false');
       // closeRITM.autoSysFields(false);
       // closeRITM.setWorkflow(false);
  closeRITM.update();
 
 
var closeReq = new GlideRecord("sc_request");
closeReq.addQuery('sys_id',closeRITM.request);
closeReq.query();
if(closeReq.next())
{
closeReq.setValue('state',4);
closeReq.setValue('stage','closed_incomplete');
closeReq.work_notes = "Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.";
}
       closeReq.update();
    }
}
 catch (e) {
    gs.error(gs.getMessage("Exception occurred while running fix job to close RITMs", e.message));
}

Hi @Swetham ,

 

Would you try dot walking update instead set value. 

//closeRITM.setValue('work_notes',"Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.");
//closeRITM.setValue('comments',"Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.");

//try below

closeRITM.comments = "Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time.";
closeRITM.work_notes="Request is rejected following the three-strike principle, when pending approval for long time."
       closeRITM.setValue('state',4);

 

tried in my PDI seems to be working
