Need a workaround to either Edit existing UI Page or Copy UI Page "Source_Request" and make highlighted checkbox = true.
The UI page is called in the UI Action "Source Request" with code as below :
function openSourceRequestPage() {
var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_task");
gr.get(g_form.getUniqueValue());
var url = new GlideURL('$source_request.do'); // without '$' sign the code change can be seen but view is not same as below
url.addParam('sysparm_stack', 'sc_task.do?sys_id='+gr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sysparm_req_sysid', gr.parent);
url.addParam('sysparm_sc_task',gr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sysparm_nostack', 'true');
window.location.href = url.getURL();
}
Hi..apologies for the late reply.
We went through lot of trial and error in getting all of this to work. A lot of custom functionality was added (being able to save and retrieve state, vendor /model defaults, etc) which contains proprietary information so unfortunately I cant share out the code but Ill share what I can.
Keeping to the OOB functionality was not a requirement so the main goal was to get either Transfer Orders or Purchase Orders created based on the choices selected by the Procurement team. The system would then handle the rest as intended.
The OOB system functions we were after are contained in the ProcSourceRequestManager Script Include. From there we simply extended the class with a custom script include and then we added new, as well as, overwrote OOB functionality. Keep in mind the main purpose of the OOB Source Request page is to either create a Purchase or a Transfer Order. One other function is to handle entitlements for software requests.
The widget loads the request data using the following server script:
(function() {
/* populate the 'data' object */
var transaction = new GlideTransaction.get();
var request = transaction.getRequest();
var psrm = new Custom_ProcSourceRequestManager(request);
//on load, check if there is any saved data
if(!input){
data.request = psrm.getREQData();
data.request.saved = psrm.saveFound(data.request.req_sys_id);
data.request.sc_task_sys_id = $sp.getParameter("sysparm_sc_task");
//console.log(data);
}
//save function
if(input.action == "save") {
data.num = psrm.saveSourceItems(input.data);
}
//load default data function
//get all the RITM info, the defaults, and the associated vendors/stockrooms/licenses for the given RITM
if(input.action == "loadDefault") {
var req_items = psrm.getSCRequestItems();
data.items = psrm.buildDataToSubmit(req_items);
// console.log(data.items);
}
//load saved data function
//find all the data for a given saved file
if(input.action == "loadSaved") {
data.items = psrm.getSaveData(input.number, input.req_sys_id);
}
if(input.action == "submit") {
data.response = JSON.parse(psrm.processRequest(input.sc_task_sys_id, input.req_sys_id, input.data));
}
})();
A UI Action on the Procurement Task directs the user to the new form with passed parameters:
function Custom_openSourceRequestPage() {
var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_task");
gr.get(g_form.getUniqueValue());
var url = new GlideURL('pc/?id=custom_source_request');
url.addParam('sysparm_stack', 'sc_task.do?sys_id='+gr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sysparm_req_sysid', gr.parent);
url.addParam('sysparm_scReq', gr.parent);
url.addParam('sysparm_sc_task',gr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sysparm_scReqTask',gr.sys_id);
url.addParam('sysparm_nostack', 'true');
window.location.href = url.getURL();
}
When the new portal Source Request page loads the following is displayed:
Hopefully this helps point you in the right direction.
