In our Test instance, we have modified dialog box that appears when creating baseline from Related Links and New button in Related tab on Project form. There is a third place to create baseline on Planning Console.
Can Create Baseline dialog box within Planning Console be modified? Where is ui page for this dialog box? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Below is our modification. We added a Baseline Type field. We would like to do the same for Create Baseline dialog box opened from within Planning Console.
Hi Brandon,
The modal popup for the Create Baseline button on the Gantt chart comes from non-editable modal.js file. In Jakarta we switch this over to a ServicePortal Angular template named "createBaseline". Just keep in mind, if you customize it you won't get updates in future upgrades and this may cause the UI to break.

Here's what you will be able to do in Jakarta.
Just to clarify:
In Istanbul
1. We cannot modify modal popup for the Create Baseline button on the Gantt chart.
2. We can modify modal popup that appears when creating baseline from Related Links and New button in Related tab on Project form.
In Jakarta
1. We will be able to modify both.
Are there any risks to modal popup created from project form in Istanbul?
Will this cause any upgrade or UI issues?
Finally, Can modal popup for Create Baseline button on the Gantt chart be disabled?
- Yes, your understanding is correct regarding what buttons are customizable in what versions.
- There are always risks when customizing parts of the default UI. ServiceNow does not overwrite customizations and so any changes to the default UI will block future changes that would otherwise be introduced. The "Create Baseline" link on the Project form is a UI Action that calls a UI Page. I do not know how you did your creation but I imagine you would either need to customize the UI Action or UI Page and therefore would risk missing changes in your next upgrade.
- The modal popup for Create baseline button on Gantt chart cannot be disabled in Istanbul. You would have to write some tricky global UI Script that would do DOM manipulation. Not exactly sure how this could be accomplished.
