Hi Gomathy,

Have an onChange client script on the date field. Validate if date is past than current date then show the message.

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also hit Like and Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

Thanks

Hi Gomathy,

You can achieve this by a Client Script and one Script include called inside the client script. Please find the code for those below:

Client Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

  if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

  return;

  }

  var ga = new GlideAjax('DateValidations ');

  ga.addParam('sysparm_name','validateDate');

  ga.addParam('sysparm_date',newValue);

  ga.getXML(ProcessResult);

  function ProcessResult(response) {

  var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

    if (answer < 0)

  {

  g_form.clearValue('extend_trim_access_date');

  g_form.showFieldMsg('field_name', 'Please enter a value greater than or equal to Todays date', 'Error');

  }

  else {

  g_form.hideFieldMsg('extend_trim_access_date', true);

  }

    }

}

Script Include:

var DateValidations = Class.create();

CatalogItemDateValidations.prototype =   Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

  //Creating new Function named 'validateDate'

  validateDate: function() {

  var ActualStartDate = this.getParameter('sysparm_date');

    return gs.dateDiff(gs.now(),ActualStartDate, true)/86400;

  },

type: 'CatalogItemDateValidations'

});

I hope this helps.Please mark correct/helpful based on impact

Hi Pal,

This is what I have written

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

    var date_obj = new Date(getDateFromFormat(newValue,user_date_time_format));

  var current_date=new Date();

  if(date_obj<current_date){

  g_form.showFieldMsg('Date','Date should not be past value',error,true);

  }

  else{

  g_form.setValue('Date',current_date);

  }

}
