How do I make fields mandatory when state changes from New to Assess

[Demo24]

Hi,

On the change request form we have the "State" field and this is a read-only field. We have an "Assess" UI action button which is the only way we can change state from "New" to "Assess". The requirement is that when status changes from New to Assess few of the fields need to be mandatory (say field1, field2). How to achieve this?

I am thinking of a way to use an UI policy and set these fields mandatory in all the other states except new state but I am just curious to know how to achieve it only when state changes from "New" to "Assess". I have also tried an onchange client script that sets fields as mandatory when old value is "-5" (new) and new value is "-4" (assess). This didn't work . Please help me in achieving this!

Hi 

I misunderstood earlier.

So you want to keep those fields non mandatory in new state? they will be only mandatory when Assess is clicked

Hi ,

Sorry on replying late!

yes that is correct. only when "Assess" is clicked , they must be mandatory (in other words, state should not be allowed to change to assess if these fields are not filled in )
