Need to make MVRS readonly based on variable selection

Abdul · Wednesday

I have a variable named Purchase type which has like 4 values and when i select one value which is Refinery Request, then a bunch of variables which are declared under variable set MRVS, like Quantity, Asset number. They all should be made read only and non mandatory.
I tried to use UI policy but it is not working

Please suggest.

Thanks

you can write onLoad catalog client script on MRVS and then use this logic
Note: I assume your purchase type variable is outside MRVS

function onLoad() {
	
    var variableValue = g_service_catalog.parent.getValue("purchaseTypeVariableName");

    // give correct value to compare here
    if (variableValue == 'Refinery Request') {
        // make your mrvs variables read only and non mandatory here

    }

}

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @Abdul ,

create a client script and use to make it read only (add your conditions and use the below line)

g_form.setReadOnly('YOUR MVRS Internal Name')

In this example I'm making the mvrs readonly onload of the form
