I have a javascript snippet and an associated “on-error” action that work just fine when I preview my page inside of Salesforce.  The “on-error” action should display a pop-up.  But, when I test the page inside of the Community, the pop-up does not show up.  My button just gets grayed out and nothing happens on the page.  I thought this could be a browser pop-up issue, but other pop-ups inside the Community ARE working.

Any errors in console?


No errors, but I see different things in the console in internal SF vs. the Community.


Internal:



Community:


The Javascript is looking at the difference between today’s date (2018-04-12) and a date field (2018-04-02, in this case) to make sure they are greater than 18 years and throws an error if not.


Here’s what my Javscript looks like (I’m checking to see if a new Patient is less than 18 years old; if so, an alternate contact is required).


$ = skuid.$;


var Patient = skuid.$M(‘PatientAccount’),

thePatient = Patient.getFirstRow();


var bday = Patient.getFieldValue(thePatient, ‘PersonBirthdate’ );

var AltContact = Patient.getFieldValue(thePatient, ‘Alternate_Contact_Name__c’);

var override = Patient.getFieldValue(thePatient, ‘NoAlternateContact’);

var today = skuid.time.getSFDate(new Date());

var millisecondsperday = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;

var diff = (skuid.time.parseSFDate(today)-skuid.time.parseSFDate(bday))/ millisecondsperday / 365.2424;


console.log(today);

console.log(bday);

console.log(diff);


returnVal = true;


//Create your conditional statements

if ( AltContact === null && ( diff < 18 ) && override !== true ) {

returnVal = false;

}


return returnVal;


Does the Profile used in the community have access to all the fields in the models?


Yes.  It’s just two fields - Alternate_Contact_Name__c and PersonBirthdate.  I checked access for both.  (Thanks for thinking about this, Pat!)


“returnVal = true;” should be “var returnVal = true;”
