UI Macro button on a field

[Maria DeLaCruz]

Hello,

I have a UI action that I want to convert to a UI Macro so that I can add it as a button at the end of a field.  

Here's my UI action:

var onCall = new MHSOnCall("SMS",current.u_other_on_call_group_1);

var user = onCall.getPrimaryUserByGroup();

if (user) {

      var wf = new Workflow();

  var   wfId = wf.getWorkflowFromName("MHS On-Call Voice");

  // add as many variables as your workflow is expecting, then pass the object

  gs.log ("Workflow ID "+wfId);

  var vars = {};

      vars.assignment_group = current.u_other_on_call_group_1;

  gs.log ("assignment_group in vars "+vars.assignment_group);

  gs.log ("vars [Object] "+vars);

  wf.startFlow(wfId, current, current.operation(),vars);

  action.setRedirectURL(current);

}

else {

  gs.addInfoMessage("Assignment Group doesn't have either on-call schedule or Primary On-Call ");

  action.setRedirectURL(current);

}

Here's what I've tried on the UI macro, but it's not working:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">

<g:evaluate var="jvar_guid" expression="gs.generateGUID(this);" />

<j:set var="jvar_n" value="callOnCallGroup1_${ref}"/>

<a id="${jvar_n}" onclick="callOnCallGroup1('${ref}')" title="${gs.getMessage('Call On-Call Group 1')}" tabindex="0" class="icon ref-button icon-phone btn btn-default btn-ref"></a>

<script>

function callOnCallGroup1(reference){

var onCallgroup = g_form.getValue(reference.split('.')[1]);

var onCall = new MHSOnCall("SMS", onCallgroup);

var user = onCall.getPrimaryUserByGroup();

if (user) {

var wf = new Workflow();

  var   wfId = wf.getWorkflowFromName("MHS On-Call Voice");

  // add as many variables as your workflow is expecting, then pass the object

  gs.log ("Workflow ID "+wfId);

  var vars = {};

      vars.assignment_group = onCallgroup;

  gs.log ("assignment_group in vars "+vars.assignment_group);

  gs.log ("vars [Object] "+vars);

  wf.startFlow(wfId, current, current.operation(),vars);

  action.setRedirectURL(current);

}

else {

  gs.addInfoMessage("Assignment Group doesn't have either on-call schedule or Primary On-Call ");

  action.setRedirectURL(current);

}

}

</script>

</j:jelly>

The button shows on the field, but when I click it, nothing happens.   Please help.

Thanks,
Maria
