    Hi Lucas

    Can you update your client side method with below code


    var wnd = aras.getMainWindow();
    var topWnd = aras.getMostTopWindowWithAras(window);
    wnd = wnd === topWnd ? wnd.main : topWnd;
    var selectedId;
    var itemTypeName;
    var innovator = new Innovator();
    if (wnd.parent.main) {
    itemTypeName = wnd.parent.main.work.itemTypeName;
    selectedId = wnd.parent.main.work.grid.getSelectedItemIds();
    } else {
    itemTypeName = wnd.itemTypeName;
    selectedId = [wnd.itemID];
    }
    if (selectedId.length < 1) {
    return;
    }
    var contextItem = innovator.newItem(itemTypeName, "get");
    contextItem.setAttribute("id", selectedId);
    contextItem = contextItem.apply();
    if (!contextItem.isError()) {
    var confirmation;
    confirmation = aras.confirm("creation of new major revision ?");
    if (confirmation !== true) {
    return false;
    } else {
    contextItem.setAction('PE_CreateNewRevision');
    var result = contextItem.apply();
    if (result.isError()) {
    return top.aras.AlertError(result.getErrorString());
    }
    }
    }

    Let me know if it works.

    Thank You

    I believe the method you modified is C# method. Current OOTB instance, Create New Revision use Server Side Code. Unfortunately, we can give warning / confirmation only through client side method. So, my solution would be

    1. Change the Action to Client Side 

    or 

    2. Create New Client Side action and attach the above code as new Javascript Method

      Hi

      Steps to be followed are:

      Step 1: Navigate to Actions --> Search for PE_CreateNewRevision

      Step 2: Change the Location to Client

      Step 3: Create a New JavaScript Method and copy above code

      Step 4: Add this method in PE_CreateNewRevision action

      Test and let me know if it works.
