Restrict user to select a time in the future.

[Ramya33]

In my incident form, there is a field of 'date/time' format. Date validation(i.e restriction on selecting a date in the future) has been done. Kindly help on how to restrict a user to select a time in the future.

Thanks!

Hi Ramya,

You can do something like on an  onChange client script on the change of that date field.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

   if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

      return;

   }

            //current date

            var currentDateObj = new Date();

            var currentDateStr = formatDate(currentDateObj, g_user_date_format);

            var currentDateNum = getDateFromFormat(currentDateStr, g_user_date_format);

            var startDateNum = getDateFromFormat(newValue, g_user_date_format);

            if (startDateNum > currentDateNum) {

                        alert(“Date is in the future”);              

                        g_form.clearValue("your_date_field");

                        return false;

            }

}

If you want to see example you can refere below link where user has achieved the same.

I want to restrict the user to select 'time' in the future. For example, if its 11:00AM when the user is raising a incident, he cannot select a time at 4:00PM on the same day. He should be able select a time before 11:00AM but not after 11:00AM.
