how to change the color of the field based on its state

[SanjivMeher]

You can use field style for this. Right click on the field where you want to set the style and click field style. 

Add you condition when the field style should apply and the color you want to apply.

Hi @pavankumark 

To change the color of a field based on its state in ServiceNow, you have a few options:

1. Client Scripts:

   • Use client scripts to dynamically modify the field’s properties based on the state.
   • For example, you can write a client script that triggers when the state changes and sets the field’s background color accordingly.

2. Field Styles:

   • ServiceNow allows you to define custom field styles.
   • Navigate to the field dictionary for the specific field.
   • In the Display tab, choose the Reference Qualifier option.
   • Specify conditions and filters to limit the choices shown or set the desired color
