Disabling order now button for the agent

[is_12]

Hello Community !..

When agent is ordering the item from configurable workspace then write a logic as follows. On change of primary contact, fetch the primary contact's account and then go to RITM table and check for the catalog item and the account fetched from primary contact. If there is an existing record then restrict the agent from ordering and also display the alert message "You are not allowed to order as there is an existing request for this customer"

already there is a UC for controlling the visibility for the items for customer.

Thanks,

Try below approach.

1. Write an onChange client script on primary contact as below"
   

   function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
       if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
           return;
       }
   
       // Call GlideAjax to check existing RITMs
       var ga = new GlideAjax('CheckUserRITMs');
       ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'hasExistingRITM');
       ga.addParam('sysparm_user_id', newValue);
       ga.addParam('sysparm_catalog_item', g_form.getUniqueValue()); // catalog item sys_id
       ga.getXMLAnswer(function(response) {
           if (response == 'true') {
               g_form.showFieldMsg('primary_contact', 'This user has already requested this item.', 'error'); //check field name
           } else {
               g_form.hideFieldMsg('primary_contact', true); //check field name
           }
       });
   }
   ​

2. Write a New Client callable script include as below
   Name: CheckUserRITMs
   Accessible from: All application scopes
   Client Callable: True
   

   var CheckUserRITMs = Class.create();
   CheckUserRITMs.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
       
       hasExistingRITM: function() {
           var userId = this.getParameter('sysparm_user_id');
           var catalogItemId = this.getParameter('sysparm_catalog_item');
   
           if (!userId || !catalogItemId) {
               return 'false';
           }
   
           var ritmGR = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
           ritmGR.addQuery('cat_item', catalogItemId);
           ritmGR.addQuery('u_primary_contact', userId); // replace with actual field name if different
           ritmGR.query();
   
           if (ritmGR.hasNext()) {
               return 'true';
           }
   
           return 'false';
       }
   
   });
   

This will show an error message at the field level and also user cannot submit even if they click the order button.

everything looks fine.

Check below two:

1. Sysids printed in 279, 280, 281 are correct
2. Add .toString() at the end of three lines of this.getParameter in script include.
3. If still didnt work, try removing the whole encoded query and copy paste the query from your list view for testing purpose and see if it is going inside.
4. If it still fails, then something is broken, I would suggest to create a new client script and script include.
