===lj_printRecord===
=== Hiding Action Items and Assignment Buttons ===
This function displays a customized print dialog for a record. Use it to set defaults, to limit the available choices, and to choose the [[Print Template]] which is used. (It is only available for {{type|}}s.)
{{Note| To apply these functions with the new AgileApps UI, see the section '''Considerations for Existing Custom Script Methods''' in [[JavaScript Field Type Reference for New AgileApps User Interface]].}}
These functions can be used to hide the actions-menu-items and record-assignment buttons, by calling them from the <tt>On Load Script</tt> section of a [[Form Script]].


;Sample Usage:
==== hideActionsMenuItems ====
This code adds a '''[Custom Print]''' button to a [[Form]], when placed in an On Load [[Form Script]]. In this case, the goal is to restrict a user who has access to that form to a specific template. (The standard Print operation makes all templates available. A standard [[Action]] button, meanwhile, is present in every form. This code puts the button in a specific form, to restrict template access for users whose role causes it to be displayed.)
Hide one or more items in the ACTIONS menu:
:<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript" enclose="div">
:<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript" enclose="div">
$("#print_button").remove();
hideActionsMenuItems(['value-1', 'value-2', ...]); Β 
$("#edit_button").parent().append(
"<input type='button' id='customPrint' value='Custom Print' class='lj-button fg-button ui-state-default ui-corner-all' onClick=\"javascript:lj_printRecord('default_print_layout=template&show_print_layout=no&default_print_document=jsp&default_page_orientation=landscape&default_pdf=yes&show_pdf=no&print_immediately=yes');\">"
); Β 
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
:;How it Works:
where the parameter is an array of strings that contains the menu-item values (found by inspecting the <tt>value</tt> attribute of elements in the UI).
::; <tt>$("#print_button").remove()</tt>: Remove the standard print button
;Example:<tt>hideActionsMenuItems(['assignOwnerShipButton','claimOwnerShipButton']);</tt>
::; <tt>$("#edit_button").parent().append</tt>: Finds the location of the edit button (present in every form), gets it's parent (the toolbar), and adds the new button to it.
The above example hides "assign to user" and "claim" options from actions menu.
::; <tt>class='lj-button fg-button ui-state-default ui-corner-all'</tt>: The standard CSS style elements for platform buttons.
::; <tt><nowiki><input type='button' ...</nowiki></tt>: Define the button. (The entire string is one uninterrupted line.)
::; <tt>onClick=\"javascript:lj_printRecord(...</tt>: Specify the button's action


;Syntax:
==== hideClaimAndAssignButtons ====
Hide the Claim-record and Assign-record buttons.
:<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript" enclose="div">
:<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript" enclose="div">
lj_printRecord('{option1}={value}&{option2}={value}&...');
hideClaimAndAssignButtons(['id-1', 'id-2', ...]); Β 
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
where the parameter is an array of strings which contains ID-attributes from the respective buttons.
;Example:<tt>hideClaimAndAssignButtons(['assignOwnerShipButton','assignTeamOwnerShipButton','claimOwnerShipButton']);</tt>
The above example hides "assign to user", "assign to team" and "claim" buttons from owner pop-up.

Accessing Form Fields

JavaScript is a powerful language that can do many things. But one of it's most common uses is to dynamically modify the behavior of Forms, using Form Scripting and Field Scripting.

Notepad.png

Note: To reference Form fields in JavaScript for the new AgileApps UI, see JavaScript Field Type Reference for New AgileApps User Interface.

Referencing the Current Form

In the HTML document object model (DOM), the current form is named _sdForm.
This line of code gets a reference to it and puts it in the form variable:

var form = _sdForm;

Accessing Fields in the Current Form

To find the name of a field in the platform:

  1. Go to GearIcon.png > Customization > Objects > {object} > Fields
  2. Find the label of the field you're interested in
  3. Get its name from the Field Name column
    That name can then be used in the JavaScript code.

All fields can be accessed using the platform's JavaScript functions, as described in the Field Types section below. The most commonly accessed field types (TextField, TextArea, Date, DateTime, Time, and URL) can also be accessed using _sdForm[0]. For example, this line of code gets a reference to the first_name field, and puts it in the variable fName_field:

var fName_field = _sdForm[0].first_name;

Fields have two properties that you can access in JavaScript:

  • name: the name of the field
  • value: the value of the field

So this line retrieves the value of the field:

var fName = fName_field.value;

As does this longer version:

var fName = _sdForm[0].first_name.value;

Other fields can be accessed using the platform's JavaScript functions.
For a complete list, see the Field Types section below.

Updating Fields in the Current Form

The method used to update a field depends on the field type. All of the methods have the general form:

set...Value(_sdForm, field, value);

Below are some examples of common methods. (The section that follows contains a complete list.)

setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "first_name", "Adam");

setPickListValue(_sdForm, "first_name", "Adam");

setMultiPickListValue(_sdForm, "first_name", ["new","closed"]); 
    // value is an array of strings

setRadioButtonValue(_sdForm, "first_name", "Adam");

setCheckboxState(_sdForm, "first_name", true);  // checked
setCheckboxState(_sdForm, "first_name", false); // unchecked

setLookupValue(_sdForm, "project_number", "123456", "My Project");
    // where 123456 is the record ID of the target record 
    // "My Project" is the value of the record locator field(s) for that record

Field Type Reference

Notepad.png

Note: To view the field type reference in the new AgileApps user interface, see JavaScript Field Type Reference for New AgileApps User Interface.

The following table shows how to access and update the different field types, where:

  • _sdForm is the variable that references the current form
  • field is a string containing the name of the field
    (as with all strings, literal values must be in quotes)
  • value is a value you specify (generally a string)
  • value is language keyword, typed exactly as shown--as in this line,
    for example, which gets the value from a field called email_address:
_sdForm.email_address.value

Notepad.png

Note:
Form data is in User Format. Data entered into the Form must be in that format, as well. Data going to and from the platform, on the other hand, must be in Database Format.

Accessing User Information

This function returns information about the logged-in user in a json object.

getUserDetails()

Values availble in the json object are:

  • id - user id
  • first_name - user's first name.
  • last_name - user's last name.
  • language - user's language code. (ex: en)
  • access_profile_name - user's access profile name.
  • time_zone_name - user's time zone name. (ex:America/Indianapolis)
  • time_zone_description - localized time zone description.
    ex: (GMT-05:00) Eastern Standard Time (America/Indianapolis)
  • date_format - user's date format.
  • time_format - user's time format.
  • locale - user's locale code.
  • primary_team_name - user's primary team.
  • current_role_name - user's current role.
    Can be empty if the user has a profile that allows global access, but does not play any specific role in the application.
  • roles - list of the user's roles in the current application, with current role first.
  • teams - list of teams the user belongs to, with the primary team name first.
  • userCustomFields - an object containing values for each custom field defined on the User object, where the access key is the field name
Example

This script prefills fields in current form with data for the logged-in user, where each user record has a custom field called customer_discount:

var userDetails = getUserDetails(); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "column_id",  userDetails.id); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "first_name", userDetails.first_name); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "last_name",  userDetails.last_name); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "language",   userDetails.language); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "time_zone_name", userDetails.time_zone_name); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "time_zone_description", userDetails.time_zone_description); 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "roles",      userDetails.roles) ; 
setTextFieldValue(_sdForm, "discount",   userDetails.userCustomFields.customer_discount);

Hiding Action Items and Assignment Buttons

Notepad.png

Note: To apply these functions with the new AgileApps UI, see the section Considerations for Existing Custom Script Methods in JavaScript Field Type Reference for New AgileApps User Interface.

These functions can be used to hide the actions-menu-items and record-assignment buttons, by calling them from the On Load Script section of a Form Script.

hideActionsMenuItems

Hide one or more items in the ACTIONS menu:

hideActionsMenuItems(['value-1', 'value-2', ...]);

where the parameter is an array of strings that contains the menu-item values (found by inspecting the value attribute of elements in the UI).

Example
hideActionsMenuItems(['assignOwnerShipButton','claimOwnerShipButton']);

The above example hides "assign to user" and "claim" options from actions menu.

hideClaimAndAssignButtons

Hide the Claim-record and Assign-record buttons.

hideClaimAndAssignButtons(['id-1', 'id-2', ...]);

where the parameter is an array of strings which contains ID-attributes from the respective buttons.

Example
hideClaimAndAssignButtons(['assignOwnerShipButton','assignTeamOwnerShipButton','claimOwnerShipButton']);

The above example hides "assign to user", "assign to team" and "claim" buttons from owner pop-up.

L10n.formatCurrency(value, precision)
  • Format a value-string specified in Database Format with no currency character and no grouping indicators (commas), and with a decimal point for fractional amounts.
  • Return a String with the value formatted using the company's locale setting for currencies, with the number of decimal places specified for the precision. If the conversion fails, return the original string.
L10n.formatDate(value)
  • Format a date value.
  • Return a String with the date formatted using the user's date format.
Note:
As best practice, do not hardcode a date string, as that value will fail for a user in a different locale. Instead, create an instance of a JavaScript Date object and pass that value as the argument to the function.
L10n.formatDateTime(value)
  • Format a date/time value.
  • Return a String with the date formatted using the user's date format, and time formatted for the user's locale.
Note:
As best practice, do not hardcode a date or time string, as that value will fail for a user in a different locale. Instead, create an instance of a JavaScript Date object and pass that value as the argument to the function.
L10n.formatNumber(value, precision)
  • Format a value-string specified in Database Format with no grouping indicators (commas), with a decimal point for fractional amounts.
