Making attachment mandatory on initial record producer request form...

[samuelscott]

I know this question must be pretty common, but I am not being able to get around it. I'm trying to make users attach a document on the initial form for a record producer and I found this on the community: https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=ec764fe1db1cdbc01dcaf3231f96...

I can't make it work (of course, I placed my custom table instead of the one displayed on the code). My custom table is: u_procurement_request_pp

Hi Ashvini,

I've seen that post but there is to much fuzz about the portal and in my case, I'm not really using the portal.

Hi Samuel,

Please find the below code:

This is a before insert business rule on incident table, you can customize it according to your criteria

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

if(!current.hasAttachments()){
gs.addInfoMessage('Attachment mandatory');
current.setAbortAction(true);
}


})(current, previous);

Please mark the answer as correct if it suffice your query.

Thanks.

This won't work since I want the user to NOT be able to submit the form if an attachment is not being attached. "Before insert" is after the user submits the form, therefore, he/she won't be stopped/prompted.
