UI Page processing script error - com.glide.script.RhinoEcmaError: "task" is not defined.

mike_allgire · ‎06-27-2024

I don't create new UI Pages that often, and for most...it is a similar use-case, so copying the client script and processing script is warranted. I have a new UI Page created from a different UI Page; however, the processing script on submission for the new UI Page is giving an Evaluator error of com.glide.script.RhinoEcmaError: "task" is not defined. Anyone know a good reason why, as this method is also utilized in OOB UI Pages.

Here is the piece of the HTML. I have verified that the sc_task value is available in this HTML when passed from the UI Action.

<input type="hidden" id="cancelled" name="cancelled" value="false"/>
<input type="hidden" id="sc_task" name="sc_task" value="${sysparm_sys_id}"/>
<input type="hidden" id="sc_req_item" name="sc_req_item" value="${sysparm_ritm}"/>
<input type="hidden" id="sys_user" name="sys_user" value="${sysparm_sys_user}"/>
<input type="hidden" id="assignment_group" name="assignment_group" value="${sysparm_assignment_group}"/>
<input type="hidden" id="assignee" name="assignee" value="${sysparm_assignee}"/>

Here is the Client script snippets that adds the "task" value.

function cancel() {
    var c = gel('cancelled');
    c.value = "true";
    GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy();
}

function actionOK() {
    var task = gel('sc_task').value;
    var ritm = gel('sc_req_item').value;
    var stockroom = gel('stockroom').value;
    var accessories = [];
	
	//Check for value in the monitor field
    var monitor = gel('monitor').value;
    if (monitor && monitor != '') {
        accessories.push(monitor.toString());
    }

	//Check for value in the keyboard field
    var keyboard = gel('keyboard').value;
    if (keyboard && keyboard != '') {
        accessories.push(keyboard.toString());
    }

	//Check for value in the mouse field
    var mouse = gel('mouse').value;
    if (mouse && mouse != '') {
        accessories.push(mouse.toString());
    }

	//Check for value in the dock field
    var dock = gel('dock').value;
    if (dock && dock != '') {
        accessories.push(dock.toString());
    }

	
    if (accessories == '') {
        alert(getMessage("Please enter equipment to restock"));
        return false;
    } else {
        var form = document.forms['form.' + '${sys_id}'];
        addInput(form, "HIDDEN", "ritm", ritm);
        addInput(form, "HIDDEN", "stockroom", stockroom);
        addInput(form, "HIDDEN", "accessories", accessories);
        addInput(form, "HIDDEN", "task", task);
        return true;
    }
}

Here is the processing script...

if (cancelled == 'false' && accessories != '') {
    var q = new infoQueryHelper();

	//Return to catalog task
    var url = '/sc_task.do?sys_id=' + task;  // <--THIS IS TRIGGERING THE EVAL ERROR
    var equip = [];
    var accessories = accessories.split(',');

    for (var i = 0; i < accessories.length; i++) {
        var alm = new GlideRecord('alm_consumable');
        if (alm.get(accessories[i])) {
            alm.install_status = 6;
            alm.substatus = 'available';
            alm.request_line = ritm;
            alm.stockroom = stockroom;
            alm.location = '';
            equip.push(alm.getDisplayValue());
            alm.update();
        }
    }
    if (equip != '') {
        gs.addInfoMessage(equip + ' restocked to the ' + q.getRecObj('alm_stockroom', 'sys_id=' + stockroom).name);
        var ritm2 = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
        if (ritm2.get(ritm)) {
            ritm2.work_notes = msg;
            ritm2.update();
        }
    }
    response.sendRedirect(url);
}
