Hi Priyadarshini,

Its by design. After all scoped apps are meant to run with in their boundaries. They should not impact any existing functionality.

Even you cannot write, g_form.setMandatory on a field that is not part of your scope. look at what i got when i tried attempting it.

You might have read this Creating a UI Policy - ServiceNow Wiki already. Below are the lines I am copy pasting from there directly.

----------

Create UI policies to dynamically change information on a form. You can create UI policies for tables and database views that are in the same scopeas the UI policy and for other tables that have at least one field in the same scope as the UI policy (starting with the Fuji release). For tables that are in a different scope than the UI policy record, you can create UI policy actions only for fields in the same scope as the UI policy, and you cannot make a field mandatory or define scripts.

Hi Srinivas,

I am trying to make a field mandatory which is created within the scope.

Its not allowing for that as well, that's my issue.

Thanks,

Priya
