Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,
No alerts are populating.

Here is the scripts

Client Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

return;

}

var ajax = new GlideAjax('Dtetimeutils');

ajax.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getDateValue');

ajax.addParam('sysparm_inc', newValue);

ajax.getXML(getDate);

function getDate(response) {

var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

alert('date is' + userObject.u_show_start_date);

g_form.setValue('u_show_start_date', answer);

alert('answer');

}

}
Script Include (client callable)

var Dtetimeutils = Class.create();

Dtetimeutils.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

getDateValue: function() {

var sysId = this.getParameter('sysparm_sysid');

var rec = new GlideRecord('u_show_impacted');

if (rec.get(sysId)) {

return rec.u_start_date.getDisplayValue();

}

},

type: 'Dtetimeutils'

});

@e__rajesh_badam

did you add gs.info() in script include and see if the function was called?

script include and client script are in same scope?

I believe I already answered your question, please debug further and enhance if any changes required

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

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,

Thank you so much for your quick assistance and I achieved it with your initial code itself by adding date format conditions (bold and Underlined).

Here is the Script for reference

Client Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

return;

}

var userObject = g_form.getReference('u_show_impacted', updateShowStartDate);

function updateShowStartDate(userObject) {

// g_form.setValue('u_show_start_date', userObject.getValue('u_start_date'));

var startDate = new Date(userObject.getValue('u_start_date'));

var show_start_date = formatDate(startDate, g_user_date_format);

g_form.setValue('u_show_start_date', show_start_date);

}

Hi @e__rajesh_badam

Try below script.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }
    var userObject= g_form.getReference("u_show_impacted", doAlert);


    function doAlert(userObject) {
        
        g_form.setValue('u_show_start_date', userObject.getValue('u_start_date')); //Make sure to use the correct field name
        
    }
}

NOTE: While setting the date value you are not picking the correct field name. Check that. Also please share the snap of your onchange client script configuration.

As per my script, you onchange client script should be configured on "Show impacted" field and UI type should be "All"

Regards ,

Siva
