The following example is an on-demand script include named OCPTOApprovalReminder. When called by running the scheduled job manually, the managers and their delegate managers are notified of employees who are scheduled for PTO on the following day.
function OCPTOApprovalReminder() {
//Passing parameters in 'getDateFormat()' function with the days which needs to be added
var startDate = getDateFormat(1); //We can use System property to set Start Date
var endDate = getDateFormat(2); //We can use System property to set End Date
//Building the encoded query all the Pending approval state proposals whose start date is tomorrow
var encodedQuery = 'state=1^roster_schedule_span.start_date_time>' + startDate + '^roster_schedule_span.start_date_time<' + endDate;
//Sends an event notification to all rota managers and their delegate managers
getNotApprovedList(encodedQuery);
//Converts the date and time in ISO Format
function getDateFormat(daysToBeAdded) {
//Getting today's date and adding '1' day
var todaysDate = new GlideDate();
todaysDate.addDaysUTC(daysToBeAdded);
todaysDate = todaysDate.getValue();
//Converting to today's date object to GlideDate object
var addingDaysToDate = new GlideDate();
addingDaysToDate.setValue(todaysDate);
//Setting the time default to '12:00:00' and returning the time in the specified format to match ISO
var staticTime = new GlideTime();
staticTime.setValue('00:00:00');
staticTime.setValue(staticTime.getHourOfDayUTC() + ':' + staticTime.getMinutesUTC() + ':' + staticTime.getSeconds());
//Returns the date & time in the specified format
var isoFormattedDateTime = addingDaysToDate.getByFormat("yyyyMMdd") + 'T' + staticTime.getByFormat("HHmmss") + 'Z';
return isoFormattedDateTime;
}
//Gliding Roster schedule span proposal table with the built-in query to fetch the records whose proposals are not approved/rejected
function getNotApprovedList(addEncodedQuery) {
var rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR = new GlideRecord('roster_schedule_span_proposal');
rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR.addEncodedQuery(addEncodedQuery);
rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR.query();
while(rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR.next()) {
//Call On-Call Scheduling OCRosterSpanApprovalUtil library with 'getPTOApproversList' function
//pass GlideRecord object of 'roster_schedule_span_proposal' table
var rotaManagers = new OCRosterSpanApprovalUtil().getPTOApproversList(rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR);
rotaManagers = rotaManagers.join(",");
// Pull only the unique sys_ids
var managerList = new ArrayUtil().unique(getManagerDelegateApprovals(rotaManagers).toString().split(','));
// Event to trigger a reminder notification for testing.
// To use, create a an event registry named "oc.manager.delegate.reminder"
// Call the event in a notification and uncomment the following line
//gs.eventQueue("oc.manager.delegate.reminder", rosterScheduleEntryProposalGR, managerList, "");
if(managerList)
gs.info("Returns the list of manager and it's delegate members >>>>>> " + managerList);

}
