How to make attachment mandatory

[Community Alums]

Hello ServiceNow Family,

Good day!

How to make attachment mandatory for a specific choice(Choice 2) in a catalog item.

But for other choices this should not be a mandatory.

Please help...

Thanks,

Rajesh

why not use Attachment type variable and make it mandatory based on the choice using Catalog UI policy?
