Data Normalizer

[prakritimallick1308]

PR Description:

The DataNormalizer Script Include provides a centralized utility for cleaning and standardizing common data fields in ServiceNow. Its core functionality revolves around the smartNormalize() method, which intelligently detects the type of input field (like name, email, phone, address, or date) and applies the appropriate normalization logic.
This method leverages specialized functions such as:

• normalizeName() — formats names to proper case and strips special characters.
• normalizeEmail() — trims and lowercases email addresses, removing invalid symbols.
• normalizePhone() — extracts digits and formats phone numbers with country codes.
• normalizeAddress() — cleans up spacing and applies title casing to addresses.
• normalizeDate() — converts date strings into ServiceNow’s display format.
• cleanValue() — removes placeholders like “N/A” or “--”.
  Additionally, the class includes normalizeFromClient(), a GlideAjax-accessible method that allows client-side scripts to invoke smartNormalize() for real-time field cleanup.
