Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

JavaScript method: SCDatum.push()
This method adds an entry to the end of a JavaScript array and returns the total number of entries in the array. If you apply this method to a Service Manager array object, then it adds the item but does not return the number of entries in the array. This method does not use the Service Manager global return code values.
Syntax
SCDatum_object.push( arrayItem );
Arguments
The following arguments are valid for this method:
Argument | Data type | Description |
---|---|---|
arrayItem
|
String | This argument specifies the array item you want to add to a JavaScript array. |
Return values
A number.
The method returns the number of items in the array.
Example
This example does the following:
- Searches the probsummary table for any incident record you define in the search variable
- Displays the new incident record as a text string
- Converts the contents of the action field into a JavaScript array
- Adds an item to the end of the JavaScript array and prints the total number of items in the array
This example requires the following sample data:
- A valid value for the number field (for example, "IM1010")
- An incident record with an action field value (for example, "IM1010")
var incidentID; function findIncident( id ) { print( "Searching for Incident record: " + id + "..." ); var incidentFile = new SCFile( "probsummary" ); var rc = incidentFile.doSelect( "number=\"" + id + "\"" ) if ( rc == RC_SUCCESS ) { print( "Success. found Incident record:\n" + incidentFile.getText() ); print( "Converting the action field to a JavaScript array..." ); var a = incidentFile.action.toArray(); print( "The action field array contains the following: " + a ); print( "Pushing new array entry..." ); var addOne = a.push( "First array item" ); print( "The number of items in the array are: " + addOne ); print( "The action field array contains the following: " + a ); print( "Pushing new array entry..." ); var addTwo = a.push( "Second array item" ); print( "The number of items in the array are: " + addTwo ); print( "The action field array contains the following: " + a ); return incidentFile; } else { print( "Could not find Incident record. " + RCtoString( rc ) ); return null } } incidentID = "IM1010"; findIncident( incidentID );
