Not able to set Date type field from Client script using g_scratchpad

[BijoyDeb]

Hi All,

There is a planned due date (date/ time) field on my incident form.

I want whenever user tries to create incident task from related list, planned due date (date) field on incident task should auto populate date that was on incident.

I have written display business rule on incident task to get date from parent incident-

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

var inc= new GlideRecord('incident');
if(inc.get(current.incident))

var plannedDate = new GlideDateTime(inc.due_date);
g_scratchpad.plannedDueDate = plannedDate.getDate();

})(current, previous);

Then, I've written onload client script on incident task -

function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if(g_form.getValue('incident'))
var plannedDate = g_scratchpad.plannedDueDate;

g_form.setValue('u_planned_due_date', plannedDate);

}

 But instead of setting date, it shows object object

Can someone please help me on what Im doing wrong in above script?

Thanks in Advance!!

simply set that from display business rule and don't use client script

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

var inc= new GlideRecord('incident');
if(inc.get(current.incident)){
current.setValue('u_planned_due_date',new GlideDateTime(inc.due_date));
}

})(current, previous);

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

@BijoyDeb 

if you want to use both then do this

Display business rule:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
    var inc = new GlideRecord('incident');
    if (inc.get(current.incident)) {
        var plannedDate = new GlideDateTime(inc.due_date);
        g_scratchpad.plannedDueDate = plannedDate.getDisplayValue(); // Use getDisplayValue() to get the date as a string
    }
})(current, previous);

Client script:

function onLoad() {
    if (g_form.getValue('incident')) {
        var plannedDate = g_scratchpad.plannedDueDate;
        g_form.setValue('u_planned_due_date', plannedDate);
    }
}

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

Thanks @Ankur Bawiskar , Instead of writing additional client script, I'll use br only.

Thanks again!
