How to call script include in background script

[dilini]

I am trying to call following script include in my background script as follows but, not successful?
My script include: 

var GetDemandChangesLastQuarter = Class.create();
GetDemandChangesLastQuarter.prototype = {
initialize: function() {},
DemandFunction :function(){
var demandList = [];
var queryString = "tablename=dmn_demand^sys_created_onONLast fiscal quarter@javascript:gs.beginningOfLastSchedulePeriod('b198ae11d7222100738dc0da9e6103d7','Last fiscal quarter')@javascript:gs.endOfLastSchedulePeriod('b198ae11d7222100738dc0da9e6103d7','Last fiscal quarter')^fieldname=state^newvalue=-4";
var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_audit');
gr.addEncodedQuery(queryString);
gr.query();
while (gr.next()) {
gs.addInfoMessage(gr.number);
}
},
type:'GetDemandChangesLastQuarter'};

Call in script-background:

var DemandList =new GetDemandChangesLastQuarter();
DemandList.DemandFunction();

Backgound script

new GetDemandChangesLastQuarter().DemandFunction();

Looks like issue in script includes newvalue=-4

Your method of calling script include in background script looks ok. Try using simpler encoded query to your glide record to check if it is getting stuck somewhere in script include itself.

1. What is the scope of the SI?

2. Is it available to other scopes

3. Are you in a different scope while running the background script.

4. use a simple encoded query to start with.

5. Return a string of numbers in your SI

var arr = [];

while (gr.next()) {
arr.push(gr.number);
}

return arr.toString();

6. Back ground script

var DemandList =new GetDemandChangesLastQuarter();
var str = DemandList.DemandFunction();

gs.info('str = ' + str);

What are you seeing when you run the bockground script?  Your script include is just trying to display an info message, and it won't display the same way in a background script as if it were running in a business rule.  You will only get a message stating that it ran a background message and what the message is.  See below
