Dialog box is not prompted when UI action is clicked.

[Rocky5]

Hello Experts,

I am using below script in UI Action to show a pop up confirmation with different verbiage based on the current state. but when clicked on button no action is being taking place.

Script:

function onClick() {

    var myActionCallbackOK = function() {

        submitNow();

    };

    // Definition of the callback function for Cancel button

    var myActionCallbackCancel = function() {

        cancelNow();

    };

    if (current.state == '2') {

        var dlgBody = 'Are you sure you want to approve the Task?';

        var dlgClass = typeof GlideModal != 'undefined' ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;

        var dlg = new dlgClass('glide_confirm_standard');

        dlg.setPreference('title', dlgBody);

        dlg.setPreference('onPromptComplete', myActionCallbackOK.bind(this));

        dlg.setPreference('onPromptCancel', myActionCallbackCancel.bind(this));

        dlg.render();

    } else {

        var pdlgBody = 'PR will be removed. Are you sure you want to approve the ABR Task?';

        var pdlgClass = typeof GlideModal != 'undefined' ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;

        var pdlg = new pdlgClass('glide_confirm_standard');

        pdlg.setPreference('title', pdlgBody);

        pdlg.setPreference('onPromptComplete', myActionCallbackOK.bind(this));

        pdlg.setPreference('onPromptCancel', myActionCallbackCancel.bind(this));

        pdlg.render();

    }

    function submitNow() {

        g_form.setValue('state', '6');

        g_form.save();

    }

}

function cancelNow() {

    // Closes the window by default, can be empty

}

Any input on where I am going wrong?

Thanks,

Rocky.

Hi,

Can you try with the below code and test again.

function onClick() {
// Definition of the callback function for OK button
var myActionCallbackOK = function() {
submitNow();
};
// Definition of the callback function for Cancel button
var myActionCallbackCancel = function() {
cancelNow();
};

var dlgBody = 'Are you sure you want to approve the Task?';
if (current.state == '2') {
dlgBody = 'Are you sure you want to approve the Task?';
} else {
dlgBody = 'PR will be removed. Are you sure you want to approve the ABR Task?';
}

var dlgClass = window.GlideModal || GlideDialogWindow;
var dlg = new dlgClass('glide_confirm_standard');
dlg.setTitle(dlgBody);
dlg.setPreference('onPromptComplete', myActionCallbackOK);
dlg.setPreference('onPromptCancel', myActionCallbackCancel);
dlg.render();

function submitNow() {
g_form.setValue('state', '6');
g_form.submit();
}

function cancelNow() {
// Closes the window by default, can be empty
}
}

Please mark this helpful if it works.

@Rocky5 

your UI action is client side; so current won't work

please use g_form.getValue() to get the state value and then compare

function onClick() {

    var myActionCallbackOK = function() {

        submitNow();

    };

    // Definition of the callback function for Cancel button

    var myActionCallbackCancel = function() {

        cancelNow();

    };

    if (g_form.getValue('state').toString() == '2') {

        var dlgBody = 'Are you sure you want to approve the Task?';

        var dlgClass = typeof GlideModal != 'undefined' ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;

        var dlg = new dlgClass('glide_confirm_standard');

        dlg.setPreference('title', dlgBody);

        dlg.setPreference('onPromptComplete', myActionCallbackOK.bind(this));

        dlg.setPreference('onPromptCancel', myActionCallbackCancel.bind(this));

        dlg.render();

    } else {

        var pdlgBody = 'PR will be removed. Are you sure you want to approve the ABR Task?';

        var pdlgClass = typeof GlideModal != 'undefined' ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;

        var pdlg = new pdlgClass('glide_confirm_standard');

        pdlg.setPreference('title', pdlgBody);

        pdlg.setPreference('onPromptComplete', myActionCallbackOK.bind(this));

        pdlg.setPreference('onPromptCancel', myActionCallbackCancel.bind(this));

        pdlg.render();

    }

    function submitNow() {

        g_form.setValue('state', '6');

        g_form.save();

    }

}

function cancelNow() {

    // Closes the window by default, can be empty

}
