Restrict the submission of Normal and Standard change requests with a past date.

[sattimsetti]

Hello Team,

We have requirement "Restrict the submission of Normal and Standard change requests with a past date"

I have created below script but it's not working. Please help me on this

function onSubmit() {

    var changeType = g_form.getValue('type');

    var requestedStartDate = g_form.getValue('start_date');

    var currentDate = new Date();

    var format = g_user_date_time_format;

    var startDateMs = getDateFromFormat(requestedStartDate, format);

    var CurrentDateMs = getDateFromFormat(currentDate, format);

    if ((changeType == 'Normal' || changeType == 'Standard') && startDateMs) {

        if (startDateMs < CurrentDateMs) {

            g_form.showFieldMsg('start_date', 'The requested start date cannot be in the past.', 'error');

            return false;

        }

    }

    return true;

}

use this

function onSubmit() {

    var changeType = g_form.getValue('type');
    var requestedStartDate = g_form.getValue('start_date');
    if ((changeType == 'Normal' || changeType == 'Standard') && requestedStartDate) {
        var today = new Date().getTime();
        var selectedDate = new Date(requestedStartDate).getTime();
        if (today > selectedDate) {
            g_form.showFieldMsg('start_date', 'The requested start date cannot be in the past.', 'error');
            return false;
        }
    }

Ankur's answer will work for you; just replace Normal with normal and Standard with standard. If you want an error message instead of field message, you can use 

g_form.addErrorMessage('The requested start date cannot be in the past.')

Please mark this as "correct" and "helpful" if you feel this answer helped you in anyway.

Thanks and Regards,

Ashish
