what did you start with? it's an easy requirement

1) in UI action you can use GlideDialogWindow

2) within the UI page add 3 links and they will take user to new record of those tables

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

try this

UI Action: Client Side

Client checkbox - true

Onclick - openDialog()

Script:

function openDialog() {
    var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow('your_ui_page'); // name of your UI page
    dialog.setTitle('More Actions');
    dialog.render();
}

UI Page:

HTML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">

<div>
    <button onclick="createRecord('incident')">Create Incident</button>
    <button onclick="createRecord('problem')">Create Problem</button>
    <button onclick="createRecord('enhancement')">Create Enhancement</button>
</div>
</j:jelly>

Client Script:

function createRecord(type) {
    var url;
    switch(type) {
        case 'incident':
            url = '/incident.do?sys_id=-1';
            break;
        case 'problem':
            url = '/problem.do?sys_id=-1';
            break;
        case 'enhancement':
            url = '/enhancement.do?sys_id=-1';
            break;
    }
    window.location = url;
}

Hi 

I have an additional requirement to pass information from Incident record to new Problem record via a UI Action. For example if a customer clicks on create problem, then based on the information present in the current Incident (like short description, description, etc.), a new problem record should be created.

Please provide your inputs.

Thank you,

Harsha
