update as this, you should use OR condition

function onSubmit() {
	//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

	var val = g_form.getValue('safeUpdatingVariable');
	var userRole = g_form.getValue('userRoleVariable');
	var managerRole = g_form.getValue('managerRoleVariable');

	if(val == 'add user to sale value' && (userRole == '' || managerRole == '')){
		alert('Kindly fill the Standard User Role Value & Safe Manager Role Value');
		return false;
	}
}

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @Community Alums 

Jus a suggestion...!!

Best way is if possible then to create one new variable of type select box & depending upon the selection you can show the user role fields like below : 

1.Select box with dropdown

2. On selection show the necessary fields

If user role selected

If manager role selected

Hi @Community Alums 

Another workaround might be like this : 

As you mentioned in your post , you have created ui policy to show both variable on form now try below :

1. Create onChange() client script on "Safe updating"

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
   if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
      return;
   }
/*if Safe updating == Add user to safe then make both fields mandatory*/
   if (newValue == 'add_user_to_safe'){
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_user_role',true);
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_manager_role',true);
   } else {
      g_form.setMandatory('standard_user_role',false);
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_manager_role',false);
   }
   
}

2.Create onChange() client script on Standard User role variable 

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
/*if user have entred some value in Standard user role variable then make Standard manager role variable mandatory as false*/
   if (newValue != ''){
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_manager_role',false);
   } else {
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_manager_role',true);
   }
   
}

3.Create onChange() client script on Standard Manager role variable 

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
/*if user have entred some value in Standard manager role variable then make Standard user role variable mandatory as false*/
   if (newValue != ''){
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_user_role',false);
   } else {
     g_form.setMandatory('standard_user_role',true);
   }
   
}

You can adjust the script as per your need as there might be contradiction.

Also use your backend name of  variables whenever necessary.

Hope this helps...!!
