Onchange client script when a field changes

[Deepthi13]

Hi team,

(i have couple of other validations so i am writing client script instead of ui policy)

i am trying below script on onchange on emptype field, it is working fine for both if condition. 

1. But when i change value to "employee" i am getting alert inside 1st if condition, and form looks like below
2. When I change to “consultant” I am getting alert in second if condition but it does not hide the fields still remains same on form please suggest. 

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}
var emptype = g_form.getValue('employement_type');
if(emptype=='employee'){
alert('onchange employee'+emptype);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',true);
}

if(emptype=='consultant'){
alert('onchange consultant'+emptype);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',false);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',false);
}
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

}

Try this

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading) {
return;
}
var empid = g_form.getValue('u_employee_id');
if(empid==''){
alert('onchange empid is empty'+empid);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',true);
}

if(empid!=''){
alert('onchange empid is not empty');
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',false);
}
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

}

i have kept one more onchange on empid also,

in one case this is failing to work.

1. i selected emptype- employee, 2 variables came (cadid & empid) with both mandatory, i have filled candid (empid removed mandatory) till here it is working fine.

2. when i change emptype to consultant and again to "employee" now it is showing as below screen shot, 

when i change emptype value and again if i select employee, "empid" is becoming mandatory, idly it should not because candid is filled! 

Can we clear value? or any other solution's?

Yes, On change of Employee type, clear values on Emp Id and Candidate ID.

i have added clearvalue in emptype onchange script as below, and testing now

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}
var emptype = g_form.getValue('employement_type');
if(emptype=='employee'){
alert('onchange employee'+emptype);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',true);
g_form.clearValue('candidate_id',true);
g_form.clearValue('u_employee_id',true);
}

if(emptype=='consultant' || emptype=='none'){
alert('onchange consultant'+emptype);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',false);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',false);
g_form.clearValue('candidate_id',true);
g_form.clearValue('u_employee_id',true);
}
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

}

Just add it like this to simplify

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading) {
  return;
}

g_form.clearValue('candidate_id',true);
g_form.clearValue('u_employee_id',true);

var emptype = g_form.getValue('employement_type');
if(emptype=='employee'){
alert('onchange employee'+emptype);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',true);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',true);
}

if(emptype=='consultant' || emptype=='none'){
alert('onchange consultant'+emptype);
g_form.setMandatory('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setMandatory('u_employee_id',false);
g_form.setDisplay('candidate_id',false);
g_form.setDisplay('u_employee_id',false);
}

}
