Hi , I want convert on timezone to another timezone .

[p_jaya]

Here i am using moment Js for   conversion.   First i have copied the code from http://momentjs.com/timezone/   and paste in ui scripts. Then i have used ui page client script to call the moment function.   here is my code   var now=moment().tz();   alert('current time:'+now);       var d=moment.tz(now,"Chile/EasterIsland").format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:00');   alert('converted time : '+d); But it is not working. My requirement is user will give time and zone . According to that   i want to convert that time into IST.

HI,

Here you go

// Get date from service now  

      var time = new GlideDateTime(current.u_start_date);  

      // Display date retrieved  

      gs.print('GMT Time: '+time);  

      // Set timezone  

      var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/New_York");  

      time.setTZ(tz);  

      // Get offset of timezone set above  

      var timeZoneOffSet = time.getTZOffset();  

      // Add offset to current time  

      time.setNumericValue(time.getNumericValue() + timeZoneOffSet);  

      // Print date/time in desired timezone  

      gs.print('Eastern time: '+time);  

thanks to tim.harris

Hi Rahul,

In the line:

  var time = new GlideDateTime(current.u_start_date);

when i am using this line servicenow is taking timezone of system.

Like in my Ui page i have some list of time zones user can select from. So using the time zone selected by user as parameter i need the stored value in "var time" and zone   to change dynamically.

so can you modify the code to take the parameter instead of current time and include zone?

Hi,

I am not clear with the requirement however, you can convert the current time of any field and using any timzone(in your case list).

var time_field = gel('your date field').value;

var selected_timezone = gel('your time zone select field').value;

var time = new GlideDateTime(time_field); // it is the date field, which you want to change according to timezone selected in UI page

var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone(selected_timezone);   // here, instead of "America/New_York", you can use the list value of timezone from your UI page.

var timeZoneOffSet = time.getTZOffset();

time.setNumericValue(time.getNumericValue() + timeZoneOffSet);

alert("changed time zone is "+time);
