How to Script if State Changes in a Client Script

[Su522]

I have an onSubmit Client Script that I need to perform several validation checks on if the variables changed.

How can I script:

If State changes to In Progress

I'm unable to use an onChange Client Script for this scenerio.

Help is greatly appreciated!!

Thank you,

I tried the OnChange Client Script and it allows the pop up window to come up. But when I click "Yes" to confirm it takes me to a New Record and does not save the form changes on the record I was on.

I'm using GlideModel with this function.

            function onConfirm() {

                gFormAlreadySubmitted = true;

                gsftSubmit(undefined, undefined, g_form.getActionName());

Can you help?

Hi @Su522 in onsubmit client script you cannot check previous state value, the alternate is to use before update Business rule.

cond: state chagesTo WIP

script:

you can access variable values using

current.variables.variablename and then you can do your validation.

I dont think a Before Update BR will work in this use case- I need to use GlideModel for a pop up window... 

A UI Action that is needed triggers my OnSubmit Client Script. Once it triggers my CS pop ups a window asking if you want to continiue. But before it does- my validation checks in the CS run.

Can you help?

Thank you

Hi @Su522 ,

What happened when the UI Action operation is performed ?
