Validation Script for Catalog Item Variable (ent_cost)

[othomas1]

Hello Community,

I am fairly new to servicenow, but i have a variable for my catalog item, that variable name is "ent_cost". I need to use some validation to make sure this variable isnt populated with crazy information, it just needs to contain a dollar sign, decimal and 2 numbers after it. ($0.00). For a client script which table do i look at the accomplish this?

There is a pretty comprehensive client-script solution here that you could use.

Thanks Mark, Im still a newbie which tabel should this client script point to?

You'll want to use a Catalog client script.  The catalog client script doesn't point to a table, it points to the catalog item that your variable appears under.  Search for 'Catalog client scripts' in your left nav.
