Hi @Mitchell_Milo ,

Hope you are doing well.

Are you using change management module out of the box ?

If yes the you can use UI policy as you can only modify the state to closed if state is review

If you are not using OOB change management then please go for client script as "changes to" and "changes from" conditions are not available in the UI policy condition.

I did onChange but does not work, what am I doing wrong?

Hi @Mitchell_Milo ,

Please try below code -

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
   if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
      return;
   }

   if(oldValue == 0 && newValue ==3){
//  0 is backend value of review and 3 is backend value of closed OOB
	g_form.setMandatory("category",true);
   }
   else{
g_form.setMandatory("category",false);
   }
}

Hi @Mitchell_Milo ,

Why not just make a UI policy? No script is needed to make a field mandatory based on another field?
