Hi rajupingili,

We are also trying to use our custom validation in our workflow forms. We tried the same procedurte what you have mentioned above. But the changes are not reflecting on the workflow form. Can you please share the steps, files and location of those files to implement the same. It would be very helpful for us.

Thanks
Anand

Hi,

What I did was create a new form control and copied the template="/org/alfresco/components/form/controls/textfield.ftl" to my own.

And I removed the * sign which shows mandatory in the field, and because the field isn't actually mandatory it won't give an error.

So in your case just remove:


<#if field.mandatory && !(field.value?is_number) && field.value == "">
            <span class="incomplete-warning"><img src="${url.context}/res/components/form/images/warning-16.png" title="${msg("form.field.incomplete")}" /><span>
         </#if>
