Trying to use script include in dictionary override

[Ken Berger]

Hi folks,

I am trying to limit the assignment groups that are seen by certain users, based on what business unit they are in.  I wrote the following script include:

var HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit = Class.create();
HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit.prototype = {
    initialize: function HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit() {
		var r = '';
		var strQuery = 'u_business_unitSTARTSWITHW^ORu_business_unitSTARTSWITHK';
		var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
		gr.addEncodedQuery(strQuery);
		gr.query();
		if(gr.next()) {
			r = 'name!=IT Infrastructure^name!=IT Operations'; 
		} 
		return r; 
    },

    type: 'HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit'
};

I am calling it in the assignment group dictionary override reference qualifier as follows:

javascript:HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit();

But when I impersonate a user that meets the criteria to hide the assignment groups it is not working, and I still see the groups that should be hidden.  Can anyone help?  I have not worked with script includes before and I am not sure if it is an issue with my code or the way I am calling the script.

Thanks,

Ken

@Ken Berger 

you are not querying for logged in user

try this and make script include classless

function HideAssignmentGroupsBasedOnUserBusinessUnit(){
	var r = '';
	var strQuery = 'u_business_unitSTARTSWITHW^ORu_business_unitSTARTSWITHK';
	var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
	gr.addQuery('sys_id', gs.getUserID());
	gr.addEncodedQuery(strQuery);
	gr.query();
	if(gr.hasNext()) {
		r = 'name!=IT Infrastructure^name!=IT Operations'; 
	} 
	return r; 
}

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
