Unable to show error message

Mahesho11 · ‎01-21-2024

have shared u the screenshot please check.

Here the problem is in security group table - I have filled security group name with the help sys_user_group, and owner from sys_user table. I have given some value to both. for example after the form is submitted I have deleted the user in that form. In catalog item if i selected the security name the owner should auto populate. So, if I use same security name then the owner is showing empty but I unable to show error message the form is submitting automatically. So, I got to know later the sys_id is present but the user got deleted with the help of alert and getValue i found it.

This scenario is I am facing in my DEV environment in my project. Can u please guide me how to remove that sy_id if value is empty.

Please help me and explain in detail.

In a table records the user is deleted

ex- security table

application name - reference - sys_group

owner - reference - sys_user -mandatory- here after record is submitted.

the user is deleted in table for some of application name. So, in that place empty field owner sys-id is coming so I unable to show error message on submit client script if owner is empty because of sys id the form is submitting.

What happens if you replace '.getValue' with '.getDisplayValue'? Value of a reference field is the sysID, so I guess you need that.

Please mark any helpful or correct solutions as such. That helps others find their solutions.

I used this code. But my problem with the owner name is not empty showing after I autopopulated but sys_id is coming in that area. I got know with the help of

var owner = g_form.getValue('owner_name');

alert(owner);

Hello @Mahesho11 ,

Please give a try to the script below and see how it works for you.

function onSubmit() {
    // Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
    var owner_a = g_form.getDisplayValue('owner_name');
    
    // Check if owner_a is empty or undefined
    if (!owner_a) {
        g_form.addErrorMessage('Owner field cannot be empty');
        return false; // Prevent form submission
    }

    // Additional check to ensure sys_id is not empty
    var owner_sys_id = g_form.getValue('owner');
    if (!owner_sys_id) {
        g_form.addErrorMessage('Owner sys_id is empty. Please select a valid owner.');
        return false; // Prevent form submission
    }

    // Continue with form submission if all checks pass
    return true;
}
