I'm overriding a global UI action for 'New' for related lists on the project task table to ask for confirmation before creating a new project task on a project task. I changed the code for now to just stop the user from doing so if the parent project task is closed.
I referenced ServiceNowGuru site that most of the posts of this nature reference first. I added the client "onclick" code, changed the action name and it doesn't go to a new form - it goes to the previous list - and I'm getting the 'Action Not Authorized' error. I've looked at posts on this issue but I can't get them to apply to my case. Any help is appreciated.
Here is my code:
function runClientCode() {
var savedState = g_scratchpad.ProjectTaskState;
var userAnswer;
if ((savedState == '3') || (savedState == '4')) {
g_form.addErrorMessage(getMessage('The Project Task is currently closed. Please re-open before adding new child Project Tasks'));
return false;
}
else {
// MUST call the 'Action name' set in this UI Action
gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'sysverb_new_project_task');
}
}
// Code that runs without 'onclick'
// Ensure call to server-side function with no browser errors
if (typeof window == 'undefined')
runServerCode();
function runServerCode() {
var uri = action.getGlideURI();
var path = uri.getFileFromPath() + '';
path = path.substring(0, path.length - 5) + '.do';
uri.set('sys_id', '-1');
path = checkWizard(uri, path);
if (path)
action.setRedirectURL(uri.toString(path));
action.setNoPop(true);
}
function checkWizard(uri, path) {
var already = uri.get('WIZARD:action');
if (already == 'follow')
return null;
var wizID = new GlideappWizardIntercept(path).get();
if (!wizID)
return path;
uri.set('sysparm_parent', wizID);
uri.deleteParmameter('sysparm_referring_url');
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('sysparm_list_');
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('sysparm_record_');
uri.deleteParmameter('sys_is_list');
uri.deleteParmameter('sys_is_related_list');
uri.deleteParmameter('sys_submitted');
uri.deleteParmameter('sysparm_checked_items');
uri.deleteParmameter('sysparm_ref_list_query');
uri.deleteParmameter('sysparm_current_row');
uri.set('sysparm_referring_url', uri.toString());
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('fancy.');
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('sys_rownum');
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('sysparm_encoded');
uri.deleteMatchingParameter('sysparm_query_encoded');
uri.deleteParmameter('sysparm_refer');
return 'wizard_view.do';
}
