Current date/time to compare with end date/time minus 3 days

[Vijay Baokar]

Hi Folks,

I have below script in wait for condition activity of wf, where i need to check if currentDateTime == endDateTime - 3 days

Suppose "current.variables.end" is 2024-08-30 10:30:00

current date/time is 2024-08-26 10:30:00

result: This script should trigger next activity when current datetime reaches 2024-08-27 10:30:00 , that is 3 days minus 2024-08-30 10:30:00, BUT ITS NOT WORKING, Please suggest the correction.

answer = ifScript();

function ifScript() {

    var currentDateTime = new GlideDateTime(); // Gets the current date and time

    var endDateTime = new GlideDateTime(current.variables.end); // Gets the end date and time from the variable

    //var diffdate = endDateTime - 3

    endDateTime.addDaysUTC(-3); //subtract 3 days with time from endDateTime

    var timediff = endDateTime;

    gs.log('TIME Diff IS :',timediff);

    gs.log('-3days',endDateTime);

    //if ( currentDateTime == timediff)

    if ( currentDateTime == timediff)

    {

        return 'yes';

    }

}

Hi @Ravi Gaurav  Please check this.

That's strange.. 
I did more changes and hit and trail.. use the below 

function ifScript() {
var currentDateTime = new GlideDateTime();
var endDateTime = new GlideDateTime(current.variables.end);
endDateTime.addDaysUTC(-3);

gs.log('Current DateTime: ' + currentDateTime.getDisplayValue());
gs.log('End DateTime minus 3 days: ' + endDateTime.getDisplayValue());

var tolerance = 60 * 1000;
var timeDiff = Math.abs(currentDateTime.getNumericValue() - endDateTime.getNumericValue());

if (timeDiff <= tolerance) {
return true;
}

return false;
}
