Hi community,

I want to set focus on the mandatory field if it is not filled by the user after click on Save/Update button,

Please find the snapshot below,

Here I just want to focus the Resolution Code if it is not filled by the user.

Like that the focus should be set on the first mandatory field based on the error message.

How to do that?

Please help me.

Thanks,

AnnBel

in html / js its done like this

document.getElementById("mytext").focus();

so if theres a varible, you'' have to find its atcual ID eg.IO:6868 (by clicking on view source page

or inspect element F11)

and use it

document.getElementById("IO:0989078904645645").focus();

but this'll not work in Portal..

.focus() method is not build on SN, due to some very good reason..

so I would suggest avoid using it and use the pop-up message

Still, in SN you can use the in- build method showFieldMsg

you may try the below code too..

document.getElementById('sys_original.incident.number').focus();

Hi Anna,

Or you can focus instead on the tab where the fields are. If the fields are in the first tab from the left, use in your UI action:

g_tabs2Sections.setActive(0);

If they are on the second tab, use

g_tabs2Sections.setActive(1);

etc.

HI All,

Thanks for your response.

I just want to know the place where they have written these error messages & likewise the code to make the focus on the first mandatory field.
