Client Script that check a variable values before task closure

[Davide Calabres]

Hi All, 

I would like to write a client script that check a select box values before the task closure.

if the value does not correspond to a specific value it is necessary to stop the closure process and show a pop-up.
if the value correspond to a specific value the closure process will continue as well.

Do you have any advice? 

Thanks and regards

Davide

You can write client (Type = on submit) script to check your column value, if value is not matching your criteria.

function onSubmit() {
   
   if (g_form.getValue("<your column name>") != "<your value>" && g_form.getValue("state")=="<state value>"){

       g_form.addErrorMessage("<your error message>");
       return false;
   }
   
}

Hi Periyasamy P, helpful!

function onSubmit() {

    if ((g_form.getValue('state') == 3) && (g_form.getValue('<variable name>') == '<variable value>')) {

        g_form.addErrorMessage("<your message>");
        return false;
    }

   }

Write onSubmit client script with validations and add return false to prevent form getting submitted. Hike like if my answer has helped you.
