getNumericValue() is not working.

[Sanjeeva Nagend]

Hi Every one,

getNumericValue() is not working, below is the script.

var start_date = new GlideDateTime();
var end_date = '04-02-2020 07:30:00';

gs.print(start_date.getNumericValue());
gs.print(end_date.getNumericValue());
gs.print(new GlideDateTime());

result: 

*** Script: 1585737978939
*** Script: undefined
*** Script: 2020-04-01 10:46:18

Hello Sanjeeva ,

I had same issue few days back so I used this script to resolve👇

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {


    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {


          return;


    }



    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below


    var nbrwn = g_form.getIntValue('port_number');


                //check to see if there are any non numeric characters in the string


    if ((isNaN(newValue) == true) || (nbrwn < 0)) {


            alert("Please enter a numeric value for Port Number");


            g_form.setValue('port_number', '');


    }


}

Hope this will help you 🙂

Hi,

You can try this script. 

var start_date = new GlideDateTime();
var end_date = new GlideDateTime("2020-02-04 07:30:00");

gs.print(start_date.getNumericValue());
gs.print(end_date.getNumericValue());
gs.print(new GlideDateTime());

Thanks

Hi,

You are assigning the value to end_date which is consider as a string not as a date/time.

The getNumericValue() returns number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT. 

Their is a small change in your script.

If my response is helpful to you, please make it correct or helpful.

      Thanks
