PopUp/Alert Record Producer

[Elizabeth26]

Hi,

I am trying to figure out the best way to create a pop-up/alert box with text and an okay button inside a record producer on the form as a customer is selecting 2 fields that meet 2 separate criteria. 

I need to have it based upon 2 values

1. If it's a certain location

AND

2. If it's certain categories

Both must apply.

Hi @Elizabeth26 ,

You can look at the below code :

function onSubmit() {

   //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below.

   var loc = g_form.getValue('location'); // enter proper backend name of ur variable.

var cat = g_form.getValue('categories')//enter proper backend name of ur variable.

If (loc == 'desiredValue' && cat == 'desiredCat'){

   var answer = confirm('Enter desired text');

}

// use this if u want to restrict users from submitting it they press cancel

   if(!answer){ // if cancel is pressed it will not allow the record producer to submit

 return false;

   }

}

Please mark my answer helpful & accepted if it helps you resolve your query.

Thanks,

Danish

It appears it does not work because I am unable to dot walk to the parent field I need to trigger off of in the catalog client script.

Is there a way around this?

Hello @Elizabeth26 ,

You can try it by creating catalog client script. 

Type = On Submit

Applies on a Catalog Item view  = True

Applies on Requested Items = True

Applies on Catalog Tasks = True

UI Type = All

function onSubmit() {

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

    var copier = g_form.getValue('copier_reams'); // create a new variable and enter proper backend name of location to get value of location

    var screen = g_form.getValue('screen_wipes'); //create a new variable and enter proper backend name of categories to get value of categories.

    if ((copier == 1) && (screen == 2)) // enter certain location & certain categories

{   

        alert(" alert."); //Enter appropriate alert message

    }

}

Please mark helpful or correct if applicable.

Thanks & Regards,
