GlideDateTime() after() and compareTo() methods returning 'undefined'

[Michael Lorincz]

I've been attempting to utilize the GlideDateTime() methods of after() and compareTo() to determine whether one GlideDateTime object comes after the other. The only problem is that these methods seem to be returning 'undefined'. Here's the code I'm using (this is from a Script Include).

There shouldn't be a problem with the dates. The log statement is returning the following:

Any ideas? Your responses would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

change

var date = gs.nowDateTime()

to

var date = new GlideDateTime();

Hi,

compare() function requires object of GlideDateTime()

few corrections to your script; please update and test once

1) change line 126 from

var date = gs.nowDateTime();

to

var date = new GlideDateTime();

2) change line 139 as below

if(date.compareTo(new GlideDateTime(gr.u_end_date)) == 1)

comment line 137

If my answer solved your issue, please mark my answer as ✅ Correct & 👍Helpful based on the Impact.

Hi,

You need to have GlideDateTime objects to use the glidedatetime functions.

Line 126

var date = new GlideDateTime();

Var 137

dueDate = new GlideDateTime(gr.u_end_date);

Similarly if you are checking anywhere else, make the changes accordingly.

Kindly mark the comment as a correct answer and helpful if it helps to solve your problem.
