Hey,

 

Please try :

var v= new GlideRecord('dmn_demand');
v.addQuery('number','DMND0001607');
v.query();

while(v.next()){
gs.print(v.sys_updated_on.getDisplayValue());
}

Is it possible to check,

when the state got cancelled ? can i get this dates ?

Its not been saved any where so i have to figure out a way manually

Hi,

 

So its generic Updated time. So, it may/may not necessarily be the time when state was cancelled. So, if there is a case where ticket was cancelled but comments/worknotes were updated later it will have the time updated.

So, any update made to ticket will get the Updated (sys_updated_on) time updated.

In your case of Cancel demand is there is no action that can be performed on the demand form then Yes, Updated (sys_updated_on) will have correct value i.e. the date-time when Demand was cancelled.

In addition, you can use v.sys_updated_on.getDisplayValue() to get exact date-time format.

 

Hi,

That Updated On is generic field; any update happens the value changes.

But in case if you want when did record state changed from New to In Progress etc; that you can know if table is audited;

If table is audited you can right click on form and check history List

A) How to know if table is audited

Search in dictionary for this table a field of Type Collection; check if audit field is true

information for this is stored in History Table (sys_history_line)

you can get details of all fields which changes along with their old and new value
