var ga = new GlideAjax('setlimitduration');

ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'setduration');

ga.addParam('sysparm_Duration', duration);

ga.getXML(CheckDateValidation);

}

function CheckDateValidation(response) {

var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

alert(answer);

}

script inculde:

var UtilsAjax = Class.create();

UtilsAjax.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

setduration: function() {

var duration = new GlideDuration(this.getParameter('sysparm_Duration'));

if (duration > 12) {

return ('Alert: Duration selected is more than 12 hours!');

Hi @Community Alums ,

Please try the below:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }
    var duration = g_form.getValue('how_long_do_you_need_access');

    var parts = duration.split(" ");
    var selectedDay = (parts.length > 1) ? Number(parts[0]) : 0;
    var selectedHour = Number(parts[parts.length - 1].split(":")[0]);
    var selectedMin = Number(parts[parts.length - 1].split(":")[1]);
    var selectedSeconds = Number(parts[parts.length - 1].split(":")[2]);

    var daysInHrs = selectedDay * 60; //Converting days into hours
    var minInHrs = selectedMin / 60; //converting mins in hrs
    var secInHrs = selectedSeconds / 3600; //converting secs in hrs

    var finDur = daysInHrs + selectedHour + minInHrs + secInHrs;
    //alert("Selected Days: " + selectedDay + " \nhours: " + selectedHour + " \nMinutes: " + selectedMin + " \nSeconds: " + selectedSeconds + " \nFinalDur: "+ finDur);
    if (finDur > 12) {
        alert('More than 12hrs detected');
    }
}

More than 12 hrs selected:

Hi @Community Alums

What is variable type for 'how_long_do_you_need_access' ?

If it is date or date/time - In script include you can use GlideDateTime()

Similar use case for your reference

Hi @Addy22,

It a Duration type variable.

You can write in this way:

setduration: function() {

var duration = new GlideDuration(this.getParameter('sysparm_Duration'));

var roundedDuration =duration.getRoundedDayPart());

if (duration >= 1) {

return ('Alert: Duration selected is more than 12 hours!');

}

It returns the rounded number of days. If the time part is more than 12 hours, the return value is rounded up. Otherwise, it is rounded down.
