Removing Request Status choices for Mandatory tasks

[aguanci]

Hi All,

Struggling with what should be a straightforward Client Script for HR Task. Our goal is listed below:

• Remove Cancelled/Closed Incomplete for Mandatory Tasks within Activity Set
• Remove Cancelled for Manadatory Ad-hoc Tasks
• Keep both for any Optional Task

With the script below I am able to remove both choices but it only fits one of the scenarios above. I have researched this and have a feeling I am supposed to call an if else statement but do not know what to call for the else. 

Table: HR Task

Type: onChange

Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

var opt = g_form.getValue('optional');

    if (opt != 'true') {

        g_form.removeOption('state', '7');

        g_form.removeOption('state', '4');

    }

}

Any help would be appreciated!

Yeah, you might need an else statement and then g_form.addOption functions to add them back.

If the onChange is on the variable ('optional').  You could also use "newValue".  

if(newValue != true)
