Clear field value based on auto populated field

[Saranya2]

Hi All,

-> I have 2 reference fields on incident form "incident manager" and "Managing Group". If incident manager is selected, the respective group should be populated on Managing Group field that the incident manager is a part of.

-> After Managing Group has auto populated, if anyone manually changed that group, then I need to make the "incident manager" field as empty.

-> For auto populating Managing group based on incident manager, I have written on change client script & Display BR, That is working fine.

-> But to clear field value based on manual change of Managing group. I have written, on change client script, but it is conflicting. it is always clearing the field value. can anyone please suggest.

Display BR

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {       

        var MI_manager = current.u_incident_manager;

        g_scratchpad.grp = 'false';

        var x = gs.getProperty('MI_Groups');

        var grpList = x.split(',');

        for (var i = 0; i < grpList.length; i++) {

            if (gs.getUser().getUserByID(MI_manager).isMemberOf(grpList[i].trim())) {

                g_scratchpad.grp = 'true';

               }

        }

        })(current, previous);

Onchange CS to populate group

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

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

      return;

   }

   var grp = g_scratchpad.grp;

   if(grp){

        g_form.setValue('u_managing_group',grp);

   }

  } 

Onchange CS to clear field value if group manually changes

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

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

      return;

   }

   g_form.clearValue('u_incident_manager');

  }

Thanks.

@Saranya2  try below

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

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

      return;

   }

if(newValue  != oldValue){

   g_form.clearValue('u_incident_manager');

}

  }

Hi @Suyog Aptikar ,

I have tried your code, it is always clearing the incident manager field value because group value is changing based on manager. So always it will match the condition old value != new value.

@Saranya2 

you can combine what @Anil Lande  had provided in my script as below:

if(newValue  != oldValue && newValue=='')

Hi,

You need make change on 2nd client script as below:

Onchange CS to clear field value if group manually changes

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

   if (isLoading ) {

      return;

   }

if(newValue===''){

   g_form.clearValue('u_incident_manager');

  }

}
