Hi everyone,
I am trying to bypass mandatory fields on a change record when the "Cancel Change Request" UI action is kicked off.
Currently, when someone clicks on Cancel Change Request (our UI action) it forces the user to complete all mandatory fields on the form before allowing them to cancel the change request.
Our change records have multiple tabs - a Planning tab with details of change, and Schedule tab with start and end dates of change window. Both tabs contain mandatory fields.
Here is my issue. The below script command works great on the main Planning tab and removes mandatory requirements for all the fields on that tab, but it doesn't apply to the Schedule tab. I still have to populate the Start and End date fields on the Schedule tab before it will allow me to cancel the change
g_form.checkMandatory = false;
How do I configure the script to perform the function on ALL tabs within the change record? I've even tried specifically calling out the Start and End date fields in the UI action (see below), but that doesn't work either.
function cancel(){
if(confirm("Are you sure you want to cancel this change?")){
//Cancel mandatory requirement on fields
g_form.checkMandatory = false;
g_form.setMandatory('start_date','false');
g_form.setMandatory('end_date','false');
//Call the UI Action and skip the 'onclick' function
gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'cancel_change_request'); //MUST call the 'Action name' set in this UI Action
return true; //Abort submission
}
return false;
Thanks in advance for any guidance on how to handle
Dave
