Catalog Item - Variable Time only required

I am new to the ServiceNow community. I have tried to search for an answer to my question, but not found any matches.

I am currently building a Service Catalog item, one of the questions relates to whether the action has to be regularly scheduled, if it is then we ask them to select a frequency Daily, Weekly, Monthly. After selecting the value for frequency we want to provide the customer with a TIME box only. However, ServiceNow only provides a DATE/TIME variable from what I can see. Can anyone help?

 

Thanks

Another way is some tweaking with field type.


If you go to a scheduled job record there you would find time field of type glide_time.

I think by doing following you can change field type:


1. Right click on field, select personalize dictionary


2. Select type value as time. (as shown in image under ed block)


3. click Update.




I hope this helps.


thanks for your suggestion will try this out and see if it meets with the customer requirements


The suggestion above is not possible for catalog variables.


In case you dont want to get into complications of UI macros, create a drop down field showing standard values like we see in Outlook. We have done the same thing and it involves less maintenance.

So there will be 2 fields : Start Time and End time. Both are drop down fields like above.
