UI Button for creating new user

[Abhishek8]

I have a requirement to add a UI button to create new user on Incident table.

When user click on the button,Ui page should have fields Name and email as input

When user provide these details then user record has to be created in User table

Hello!
The ui page can be also a simple popup?

Processing Script:

```javascript
var name = request.getParameter("user_name");
var email = request.getParameter("user_email");
var document_sys_id = doc_sys_id;
gs.info('test ' + document_sys_id);

if (!gs.nil(name) || !gs.nil(email)) {
if (gs.nil(name) || gs.nil(email)) {
jvar_result = "Both Name and Email are required.";
} else {
var userGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
userGR.addQuery("email", email);
userGR.query();

if (userGR.next()) {
jvar_result = "A user with this email already exists: " + userGR.getDisplayValue("name");
} else {
var newUser = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
newUser.initialize();
newUser.name = name;
newUser.email = email;
newUser.user_name = email.split('@')[0];
newUser.insert();

jvar_result = "User <b>" + name + "</b> created successfully.";
}
}

if (!gs.nil(document_sys_id)) {
var redirect = gs.getProperty('glide.servlet.uri') + 'incident.do?sys_id=' + document_sys_id;
response.sendRedirect(redirect);
}
}
