Dear Community,
I was wondering if someone could help with the following…
We need to hide the ‘Close Incident’ button (affect all users) when the ticket is in a ‘State’ of Resolved. It currently serves no purpose at present, and that confuses some people. incident.[incident]
I’m a novice, so any instructions or advice would need to be perfectly clear. Baby steps would be nice. 🙂
Your help will be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Pierre

You will have to put that in the condition as well.
(current.incident_state != '1' && current.incident_state != '7' && current.incident_state != '6') && (gs.hasRole("itil") || gs.hasRole("itil_admin") || current.caller_id == gs.getUserID() || gs.hasRole("admin"))
Hope you got the resolution with my help.
Can you mark correct answer to close this thread?
Regards,
Omkar Mone

Hi,
update the condition of that UI action as below; the below is out of the box condition
existing condition: new global.IncidentUtils().canCloseIncident(current)
added new as per your case
new condition: new global.IncidentUtils().canCloseIncident(current) && current.state != '6'
Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

Hi Ankur,
I already have this in the condition. How and where to I add this please.
Onclick: resolveIncident();
Condition:
(current.incident_state != IncidentState.NEW && current.incident_state != IncidentState.CLOSED && current.incident_state != IncidentState.RESOLVED) && (gs.hasRole("itil") || gs.hasRole("itil_admin") || current.caller_id == gs.getUserID())
This is the script
function resolveIncident(){
//Set the 'Incident state' and 'State' values to 'Resolved', and display mandatory fields
g_form.setValue('incident_state', 6);
g_form.setValue('state', 6);
g_form.setValue('resolved_by', g_user.userID);
gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'resolve_incident'); //MUST call the 'Action name' set in this UI Action
}
//Code that runs without 'onclick'
//Ensure call to server-side function with no browser errors
if (typeof window == 'undefined')
serverResolve();
function serverResolve(){
current.incident_state = IncidentState.RESOLVED;
current.state = IncidentState.RESOLVED;
current.update();
current.resolved_by = gs.getUserID();
}
Regards,
Pierre

Hi Ankur.
I tried this but it was too long and got cut off at the end.
(current.incident_state != IncidentState.NEW && current.incident_state != IncidentState.CLOSED && current.incident_state != IncidentState.RESOLVED && current.state != '6') && (gs.hasRole("itil") || gs.hasRole("itil_admin") || current.caller_id == gs.getUserID())
I though I was almost there... damn length has always been my problem
