Hi Shikha,

Thank you

Yes,it will work everywhere as mandatory.because dictionary override play with direct database ,not on form.so it is not temporary mandatory we can say.

UI Policies work on the form, so if you just need the field to be mandatory then making ui policies (for individual tables/forms)
