We need to list all the mandatory fields in the record using a client script (code)

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Hi @AK001025799 ,
1.Create a onLoad client script.

Table - Incident

UI type - All

Type - onLoad

Active - checked

Global - Checked else specify viewName

2.Add the following script with a delay

function onLoad() {
    // Delay execution by 500ms to allow Dictionary Overrides to fully load in the browser
    setTimeout(function() {
        
        var fields = g_form.getEditableFields();
        var mandatoryFieldsList = [];

        for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
            var fieldName = fields[i];
            
           
            if (g_form.isMandatory(fieldName)) {
               
                var fieldLabel = g_form.getLabelOf(fieldName);
                mandatoryFieldsList.push(fieldLabel);
            }
        }

        // If mandatory fields are found, display them 
        if (mandatoryFieldsList.length > 0) {
            g_form.addInfoMessage("The following fields are mandatory:\n\n" + mandatoryFieldsList.join(","));
        }
    }, 500); // 500 milliseconds delay
}

 

3.Save the record.

4.you will get a Info message on form load.

Hi @AK001025799 

I think you can do this using an onLoad Client Script. I'm still learning, but this code worked for me.
function onLoad() {
var fields = g_form.getEditableFields();
var mandatory = [];

for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
if (g_form.isMandatory(fields[i])) {
mandatory.push(g_form.getLabelOf(fields[i]));
}
}

alert("Mandatory Fields:\n" + mandatory.join("\n"));
}
This checks all the editable fields on the form and shows the mandatory field labels in an alert.

Hi @AK001025799 ,

 

function onLoad() {

    var mandatoryFields = [];

    var elements = g_form.elements;

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

        var fieldName = elements[i].fieldName || elements[i].name;

        if (fieldName && g_form.isMandatory(fieldName)) {
            mandatoryFields.push(fieldName);
        }
    }

    console.log("Mandatory Fields:", mandatoryFields);
    alert("Mandatory Fields:\n" + mandatoryFields.join("\n"));
}

 

Thanks,
