Limit number of attachements on catalog Item

[now_dev]

Hi All,

I have created a macro for adding attachments on catalog item( Client don't want to use oob feature) and now wanted to restrict the user from adding more than one attachment. Also, wanted to add an override feature.

So, If there is more than one attachment, the user should receive a message saying " Only one invoice allowed, do you want to replace the existing one? — Yes/NO"

If the user clicks on "Yes" it should override with the new attachment.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Ks,

you can have onSubmit catalog client script to achieve this:

if user clicks on Yes then do you want to remove the latest attachment from the cart ? can you explain more on this

var sys_id = gel('sysparm_item_guid').value;
var attachment = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');

attachment.addQuery('table_name','sc_cart_item');

attachment.addQuery('table_sys_id',sys_id);

attachment.query();    

var numberOfAttachments = attachment.rows.length;

if(numberOfAttachments >1){

var confirmBox = confirm("Only one invoice allowed, do you want to replace the existing one? — Yes/NO");

if(confirmBox.toString() == 'true'){

// logic to remove latest attachment

return true;

}

else{

return false;

}

}

return true;

Hi Ankur,

Thanks for the reply.

Answer to your question -- if the user clicks on Yes then do you want to remove the latest attachment from the cart.

If the user clicks on Yes, I wanted to delete existing attachment and allow them to attach the new attachment.

Hi Ks,

So consider user attaches 2 attachments file and file and gets the confirm box message. and user clicks on yes then which attachment should be removed?

file 1 or file 2 or the one which was attached recently or both?
