Prevent assignment group manager approving change request when state is assess

[Shane_Waka]

Hi There,

This is my first ever post to the community. I am relatively new to being a ServiceNow administrator. I would like some help implementing this requirement "Prevent assignment group manager approving change request when state is assess" This is my code below, also I can't actually tell if it is runs.

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {

    var groupApproval = GlideRecord('sysapproval_group');

    groupApproval.get(current.group);

    var gr = GlideRecord('change_request');

    gr.get(current.sysapproval);

    var man = GlideRecord('change_request');

    man.get(current.sysapproval.assignment_group.manager.sys_id);

    if (groupApproval.assignment_group == gr.assignment_group) {

        if (man == current.approver.sys_id) {

            current.state = 'not_required';

            return;

        } else

            return;

    } else

        return;

})(current, previous);

Any help would be appreciated

@Shane_Waka You can create a business rule like to following and cancel the approval.

Here is the script.

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

	// Add your code here
	//Check if the approver is the manager of change request assignment group and change request is in Assess state

	if(current.parent.state=='-4'&&gs.getUserID()==current.parent.assignment_group.manager){
		gs.addInfoMessage('Assignment Group Manager can not approve the change request if it is in Assess state');
		current.setAbortAction(true);
	}

})(current, previous);
