How to make dependent variable mandatory on basis of choice selected in primary variable.

I have created a record producer and there are two variables X and Y, both referring to sys_choice table and the choices in the variable Y are dependent on variable X choices.

 

Now my requirement is when we select any choices in variable X and if it has any dependent value in variable Y, then make the variable Y mandatory. if there is no dependent value in variable Y it should be non-mandatory. How can I achieve this?

this is trickier.

For this you can use onChange catalog client script on Variable X and see if there is any dependent choice in Variable Y for this value

If yes then make variable Y mandatory
