Trying to Calculate Days remaining

[jasonjones]

All,

I'm trying to create a client script or business rule that calculates the difference of a Warranty Expiration Date and the current date to determine a "Number of Days remaining" on the warranty.

I found this script in community to modify, but I'm still missing something.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    var strt = g_form.getValue(warranty_expiration);  //set this as current warranty date
    var end = new Date(now.getFullYear(), now.getMonth(), no.getDate());  //This retrieves the current date
    var ajax = new GlideAjax('AjaxDurCalc');
    ajax.addParam('sysparm_name','durCalc');
    ajax.addParam('sysparm_strt',strt);
    ajax.addParam('sysparm_end',end);
    ajax.getXMLWait();
    var answer = ajax.getAnswer();
    g_form.setValue('u_days_of_remaining_warranty', answer);
}

Below is an error that is received.

Any help is appreciated.

Ravi,

Tried this, but no success.  I do have it as a string value. Does this need to be duration?

Thanks.

Did you try this?

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
var start = new GlideDateTime();
var end = new GlideDateTime();
end.setValue(current.warranty_expiration);
// Duration in days
var dur = gs.dateDiff(start, end,false);
gs.addErrorMessage('This is the Duration:'+dur.split(' ')[0]);
current.u_days_of_remaining_warranty =dur.split(' ')[0];

})(current, previous);

Can you change the above business rule type from "After update" to "After Query" and try ?

Can you add the info message to get the "days" value from the business rule and let me know?
