Making variables non-mandatory if checkbox variable selected true.

[Pratiksha KC]

We have requiremet -
If value is '1', assignment1 , summary1, description1 should be mandatory and visbile.
If value is '2', assignment1 , summary1, description1 also assignment2 , summary2, description2 should be mandatory and visible.
If value is '4', assignment1 , summary1, description1 also assignment2 , summary2, description2 also assignment3 , summary3, description3 should be mandatory and visible. 

I have already implemented this using a UI Policy based on the value of number_of_required_tasks.

But Now requirement is - We have Variable "checkbox" - named as "Additional Tasks and Approval not required" (Backend name - additional_tasks_and_approval_not_required)

If checkbox true -> fields/variables mentioned above should set to not mandatory.

I tried creating another UI Policy to set all variables as non-mandatory when the checkbox is true, and also tried adjusting the order of UI Policies, but it didn’t work.

You should add the checkbox requirement to the other ui policies:

if value is 1 AND checkbox is false, make fields mandatory

if value is 2 AND checkbox is false, make fields mandatory

The 'revert if false' will ensure that if the checkbox is true, the ui policies won't be evaluated as true.

@Pratiksha KC 

both the UI policies will try to conflict.

I will suggest to write onChange catalog client script 1 on Checkbox and 1 on Number of Required tasks

Then handle your logic based on the requirement.
