Hello,

 

I have a client script below that inactivates the attachment icon on change requests when it is in a state other than "New".  However, I missed a step, I want users who are members of the "GPI- Change Management Office" group to be able to attach icons to change requests regardless of the state the request is in, but I am not sure how to do this.  Thank you for your help.

 

function onLoad() {
    var current_state = g_form.getValue('state');
    if (current_state != 'New') {
        g_form.disableAttachments();
    }
}

Hi @DeIvory Gordon 

 

check the backend value of 'New' in state field i.e  for New its -1 in OOB.

 

function onLoad() {
    var current_state = g_form.getValue('state');
    if (current_state != '1') { // in my instance backend value for 'New' is 1
        g_form.disableAttachments();
    }
}
