Put a warning message on record producer

[dfry123]

Is there a way to put a warning message on a record producer (Either when first going to the form or after submitting) that only shows up after a certain time?

I need to put a warning up that shows up only during the hours of 5 PM - 8 AM.

Thank You!

Dates can be a bit of a pain, if you have users in different timezones.   There are different functions to handle that.

I just thought of something else, what about weekends?   If you want the message to come up on weekends as well it may be easier to create a schedule.

Then you can use the isInSchedule() function.

looking at this, with the time spanning 2 days (evening into morning), i would probably suggest going with the schedule.

Thanks for the reply! This is the first time ive used schedules... so I may be doing something wrong. Please see what I have set-up below. No matter what time I set   the schedule to be free the message after hours still shows.

Script within record producer:

var schedRec = new GlideRecord('cmn_schedule');              

schedRec.get('name','Research Request');      

var sched = new GlideSchedule(schedRec.sys_id);              

var schedTime = new GlideDateTime(gs.nowDateTime());                      

gs.log('Time 1: ' + schedTime);

if (sched.isInSchedule(schedTime, 'US/Eastern')) {  

gs.addInfoMessage("in hours ");

}  

else {  

gs.addInfoMessage("after hours"); 20.}

Actually. Out of Box you should have an 8-5 weekdays schedule.   (along with a version that accounts for weekeds and another for holidays)

I would use this one, and reverse the logic.

If it's inside the schedule - no message; if it's outside - message.
