You can write this in display business rule and then set them mandatory to false in your onload client script

var mandatory_fields=[];

var set = new GlideappVariablePoolQuestionSet();

  set.setRequestID('put your request item sys_id');

  set.load();

  var vs = set.getFlatQuestions();

  for (var i = 0; i < vs.size(); i++) {

if(vs.get(i).mandatory==true){

mandatory_feilds.push(vs.get(i).getName());

}

  }

g_scratchpad.mandataoryArray=mandatory_fields;

In your client script use this

for (i=0; i<g_scratchpad.mandatoryArray.length;i++){

g_form.setMandataory(g_scratchpad.mandatoryArray[i],false);

}

Abhinay,

This is definitely helpful but it's not grabbing the actual variables for me. It's missing a couple for me (2 drop downs and a string)

Is there any limitations with your script? For example, does it ignore variable sets?

Nope, it should have grabbed all the variables which have mandatory set to true

Ah, I have found the issue.

This only works for variables that are checked off as mandatory because its checking at display. The ones I need to change are being set to mandatory by a UI policy. Variables that are not mandatory by default will not work with this solution.

I'll see if I can re-work this to check after the UI policy.

Thanks for the help!

Ahh.. I do not think this will work with a display business rule. Since

display business rule is triggerred before a record is actually displayed.

I will recommend to use a glideajax in a client script and put the server

side script in a script include.
