How to calculate 6 months from today

[sonita]

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var today=new Date();

var month_day = new Array();

month_day[0] = "January";
month_day[1] = "Feburary";
month_day[2] = "March";
month_day[3] = "April";
month_day[4] = "May";
month_day[5] = "June";
month_day[6] = "July";
month_day[7] = "Augest";
month_day[8] = "September";
month_day[9] = "October";
month_day[10] = "November";
month_day[11] = "December";

var today_month = month_day[today.getUTCMonth()];

alert('Today Month'+today_month);


There is a date field on the catalog form. User should not be able to enter a date that is 6 months from today. anything before 6 months is acceptable . Can you help me with my onchange client script please?

var start = new Date(g_form.getValue('expiration_date'));
//alert(start);

var selected_month=start.getUTCMonth()+1; //get current month
alert('selected month'+selected_month);


alert(today.getDate());
alert(start.getDate());

if(start >today_month+6)
{

g_form.showFieldMsg('expiration_date','Please select your date','error');
g_form.clearValue('expiration_date');
}

you should convert the GlideDate object to a GlideDateTime and use addMonthsLocal() or addMonthsUTC(), then convert back to a GlideDate().

var inc = new GlideRecord('incident');
inc.addActiveQuery();
inc.addQuery('number','INC0000055');
inc.query();
var date="";
if(inc.next()){
date=inc.opened_at;
gs.print(date);
var datee = new GlideDate();
datee.setValue(date);
datee.addMonths(6);
gs.print(datee.getDate());
}

The same i tried in my script and it worked.

Please mark the answer as correct and helpful if it helped you..!!
