Stop onchange client script trigger when the same filed value updated in on load client script.

I am trying to update a filed value in onload client script, and the same filed has onchange client script and its also triggering when onload. So how can we stop this trigger.

 Hi Madhusudhan,

 

Option 1: Use an onChange() client script instead of onLoad() to update the field value. This prevents duplicate execution since onChange() runs both on field 'change' and form 'load'.

Option 2: Use only an onLoad() client script to update the field and deactivate the onChange() client script to avoid unnecessary execution.
