Display error message for attachment mandatory

[Priyanka145]

Hi ,

I m having a catalog item, attachment should be mandatory.

I have set it up in portal settings.

But I want the error message to be displayed like "kindly attach migration document". Please let me know how to customise the error message if attachment is not added while submitting the catalog item

Hello @Priyanka145 ,

Use the below "OnSubmit" client script

and make sure to set Isolate script: False on client script / catalog client script.

function onSubmit() {
    if (this.document.getElementsByClassName('get-attachment').length == 0) {
    g_form.addErrorMessage('kindly attach migration document.');
        return false;
    }
}

Would you rather prefer "this.document. ..." instead of using ".getValue()":

function onSubmit() {
    if (g_form.getValue('get-attachment').length == 0) {
        var getName = g_user.getFullName();
        g_form.addErrorMessage('kindly attach migration document.');
        return false;
    }
}

This one worked for me as an alternative to our default error message that displays with the mandatory attachment.

Thanks!
