set assigned to mandatory when state changes

[Shir Sharvit]

I need to write on change client script that if state field Changes directly from "new" (1)  to any other status except "in progress" (2), assigned to field  should be mandatory.

I tried this:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

    if (isLoading) {

        return;

    }

   if (oldValue == 1 && newValue != 2) {

        g_form.setMandatory('assigned_to', true);

    }else {

        g_form.setMandatory('assigned_to', false);

    }

}

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Try like this

if (oldValue.toString().indexOf("1") > -1 && newValue.toString().indexOf("2") < 0) {
            g_form.setMandatory('assigned_to', true);
        } else {
            g_form.setMandatory('assigned_to', false);
        }

Thanks,
