Hi Sachin,

Both of these are completely do-able. For the first one I recommend using a GlideAjax call to a script include that verifies the name/email is available.

For the second, you can simply use an onChange client script that takes the content of the first field and appends the appropriate suffix for you.

Try this:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

var userID = g_form.userID;

var gr=new GlideRecord('sys_user');

gr.addQuery('user_name', userID);

if(gr.next())

alert("Entered User ID already Exists. Please change the value");

g_form.setValue('userID','');

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

}
