Restart workflow from UI action?

[Edwin Fuller]

I have a UI action that reopens the record from a close state to an active state and sets the status back to in progress. I would also like to restart the workflow, can someone show me how that would be written?

Workflow Name = ConnectUs

Workflow sys_id = 17f8a0e46f452a00b2a0674f8e3ee4a7

UI Action Script

function worknotess(){

    if (g_form.getValue('work_notes') == '') {

          try {g_form.hideFieldMsg('work_notes');} catch(e) {}

          g_form.setMandatory('work_notes', true);

          g_form.showFieldMsg('work_notes','Work Notes are required');

    }

    gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'check_worknotes'); //MUST call the 'Action name' set in this UI Action

}

if (typeof window == 'undefined')

    serverResolve();

function serverResolve(){

    current.current_status = ('In Progress');

    current.actual_completion_date = '';

    current.update();

    }

Hello Edwin,

Place the below line above current.current_status = 'In Progress';

new Workflow().restartWorkflow(current, true);

I receive the following error below when adding the line below above current.current_status = 'In Progress';

new Workflow().restartWorkflow(current, true);

Replace line new Workflow().restartWorkflow(current, true);

with new global.Workflow().restartWorkflow(current, true);
