How to compare two dates and give condition as per the selected dates on two date Fields in suitelet script? - netsuite

Question

Here what I am doing is I have just created a simple suitelet as well as linked client script also,
The thing is here I'm getting an error page called unexpected error. I don't know why it is going there. Im providing both scripts please take a look and give me a solution.
define(['N/record','N/ui/serverWidget','N/redirect','N/runtime','N/search','N/url'],function(record,serverWidget,redirect,runtime,search,url){

var Request = context.request;

var lastname=form.addField({

Response.writePage(form);

}
}
return{
onRequest:onRequest
}
});
here is my client script
here only I had a doubt on how to give condition
Actually, my need is If we select both dates on as per logically that means
let me tell scenario
#1:START DATE is 09/12/2022 and END DATE is 17/12/2022{//its like Start date is less than end date search should happen as well as it
has to set the values in the sublist }
#2 END DATE IS 17/12/2022 END DATE is 09/12/2022{ // it is like reverse process absolutely there will be no condition so what I
have to do is I need to give a pop up prevent user to select date
like this }
here is my client script and also I'm proving the screenshots of error page and design of my suitelet
define(['N/currentRecord','N/search','N/record','N/url','N/format'],function(currentRecord,search,record,url,format){
function fieldChanged(context) {
var recordObj=context.currentRecord;
// var name = context.fieldId;
var startDateValue=recordObj.getValue({
fieldId:'custpage_advs_start_date'
});
var endDateValue=recordObj.getValue({
fieldId:'custpage_advs_end_date'
});
if((startDateValue)&&(endDateValue)){
var startresponseDate=format.format({
value:startDateValue,
type:format.Type.DATE
});
var endresponseDate=format.format({
value:endDateValue,
type:format.Type.DATE
});
alert("The Customer entry Records that you have entered is between the dates " +startresponseDate +" and "+endresponseDate +" Click ok to continue " );
var suiteUrl = url.resolveScript({
scriptId: 'customscript_advs_ss_editviewcolumn',
deploymentId: 'customdeploy_advs_ss_editviewcolumn',
returnExternalUrl:false,
params : {
custparam_start_date: startresponseDate,
custparam_end_date: endresponseDate //define a parameter and pass the value to it
}
});
}
else{
return true;
}
setWindowChanged(window,false);
window.location = suiteUrl;
}
return{
fieldChanged:fieldChanged
}
});
please someone help me to solve my issue

Answer 1

As far as the dates are concerned you probably want to get the timestamps by doing something like: var startresponseDateTs = startresponseDate.getTime(); and then once you have the numbers you can just compare those. In NS you may be able to literally compare the NS Dates just (date1 > date2) but I'm not 100% about that one.
*By the way any of these could be causing the unexpected error:
(1) Your suitelet is missing a bracket above the final return.
(2) all of the "mysublist"'s seem to be undefined. The sublist needs to be created just like you created the form: var mysublist = form.addSublist({ id: 'custpage_a_sublist_id', type: serverWidget.SublistType.LIST, label: 'Hello Sublist' });
ps. adding a try {} catch(err){} block into the code could help. Not always. If its still not working you're about to get a masterclass in using the debugger :P

Answer 2

You need to call the client script before/ above the response of suitelet.
and try to add alert after a block of code if you don't know how to use debugger for each variable as a testing of client script execution.
like:-
alert(" startDateValue "+startDateValue);
alert(" endresponseDate"+endresponseDate);
alert("line no 110"); //for line no to get exact line with error.
so that you find the line where you are actually getting the error.
Thanks
