Changing Field Required/Optional setting with Javascript

wb9tpg — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 20:25:06 GMT

Is there a way to change the required setting for a field on a task on the fly using Javascript? I want to change the setting for field2 based on what was entered info field1.

Hi Gary,

It is possible to do that with javascript. If you have a field which is going to be conditionally mandatory, make sure that you keep it optional in your form model. Then at runtime modify it using java script. Please find attached a sample form model. You can import it via App Designer (Kick Start) -> Forms -> Import

Also, please note that if you are using for your end user application, these javascript logic needs to be applied in your ADF application

Cheers,

Ciju
