Mandatory asterisk is still red even though the field has value

[vai]

Hi,

I have a field of type List, I am trying to assign values to it with the help of a business rule...

          proj.setValue("u_users", current.u_user.toString());

i see that this field of type List has red asterisk even though it has value in it.

It looks similar to the above one.

Hi Vineeth

This occurs in fields which type is list and the system is assigning the value to the field.

You would expect it to be grey since it is populated. You will still be able to save or submit the record without getting the mandatory error message.

You should be able eliminate this by creating a conditional UI policy (make sure Reverse if false is set)

If user is not empty, then set Read only = Leave alone, Mandatory = false, Visible = Leave alone

I think you will need to use g_form.setValue() for the value to be registered properly and the asterisk will go grey.
