How to access RITM/TASK variable values in Client Side script of UI Actions ?

[ankita1506]

Hi Everyone, 

I want to check the ritm variable values in the client code of UI Action custom button created on catalog task form. I tried accessing variable values using "current.variables.variable_name==" and even through "current.request_item.variables.variable_name" but neither of these are working. Please suggest a way in which I can check if the variables are empty or not in the client function for UI Action.

Hello @ankita1506 ,

You need to create this UI action on "sc_req_item" table, then only you would be able to access the variables with the help of "current.variable.variable_name".

But I want to create the custom button only on Catalog Task created for the RITM. And that button should only function after checking all the mandatory variables are populated , else abort the ongoing action. 

Is there any way to access variables in client function of UI action? The variables are visible on Task form also.

Hello @ankita1506 ,

You can use the script include and call that script include through the Glide Ajax in the client side UI action. That will help.

It worked this way but I have one more doubt. If I want to redirect to the same page after the action is performed how can I achieve this in client script. "action.setredirecturl(current)" is not working.
