How can I check that the Current Time is after a Specific Time?

[simonbourne]

I need to set a flag field based on the time that an Incident is raised.

I need to compare the current time with specific time, depending on the client.  For example, if the Created time is after 18:00 set the flag to TRUE.  What would be the syntax for the checking the time?

Hi,

You can use below script to get current time.

var gdt = new GlideDateTime(); // current time in GMT
var userDateTimeZone = gdt.getDisplayValue(); // in local time
var userTime = userDateTimeZone.split(' ')[1]; // parsed time field
gs.print(userTime); // return in HH:MM:SS format

Since userTime is in the format HH:MM:SS, we can compare it with specific time as per normal string comparison.

if (userTime > Specific time) {
// Incident condition to set flag true
}

Provided both are in HH:MM:SS format (userTime is already in this format).

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Himanshu
