When using an advanced ref qualifier in a scoped app, don't forget to call the script include like this:

javascript: new x_223778_upload_li.getMyDepartments2().getDepartmentUsers();

In global apps, however, you can simply call a script include from an advanced ref qualifier like this:

javascript:u_backfillAssignmentGroup();

So, no need to call it with new x_ etc.
