Scripts are not triggering when making updates to records in List View.
There are scripts in place to autopopulate certain fields based on changes ot other fields. For example, on a HW Asset record, if State changes from On Order to In Stock, the Order Received date field should autopopulate with TODAY's date. This works if you edit the record and click Save or Update, but not if you update the State in the List View. This can result in lost or missing data. This is especially true in the above scenario where Deskside may be updating dozens or even a hundred HW Asset records to 'receive' them into inventory. It isn't feasible to update 100 records for the same update (State change) by editing each record in turn. With an average load time approaching 30 seconds between records you are introducing 50 minutes just to open and close records when the list view for same 100 could be updated in 5-7 minutes.
This is the onchange script I have and it works on single form edit. But I want this to trigger changes on list view also (bulk records)
function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
return;
}
if(newValue=='disposed'){
var SetDisposedDateObj = new GlideAjax('SetNowDate'); //Calls Script Includes: SetNowDate
SetDisposedDateObj.addParam('sysparm_name','now');
SetDisposedDateObj.getXMLWait();
var disposedDate = SetDisposedDateObj.getAnswer();
g_form.setValue('u_disposed_date', disposedDate);
}
else{
g_form.setValue('u_disposed_date', '');
}
}
What is the best way to script this?
