Set a date and time field from a business rule.

[ServiceNowSteve]

Good Morning All,

I am running a business rule on my incident table which requires me to update a time field on a different table. I have tried several iterations of the code but nothing seems to work.

The line of code I am using is

data.setValue('u_timefield', gs.now());

I have also tried SetDisplayValue as well as trying

data.u_timefield =  gs.nowDateTime();

but still nothing. Any idea how I can accomplish this?

How about just

current.fieldName=new GlideDateTime();

You are the MAN! Thank you sir!

Hi,

Go to Buisness rule, select the "Action" tab, set field value of TimeField to javascript:gs.nowDateTime().

Remove your line of code. Mark the answer correct and helpful, if it answers your question.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it's not the current incident form that needs the update it's a different table.
