Hello Ramya,


Making the attachment mandatory based on the specific selection, It won't be possible without DOM manipulation(Not Recommended). We can achieve by writing an onSbumit() client script for that field. Please find the code below

function onSubmit() {
    if (g_form.getValue("Field_value") == 'valueCheck') { //get the value
        try {
            var attachments = document.getElementById('header_attachment_list_label');
            if (attachments.style.visibility == 'hidden' || attachments.style.display == 'none') {
                alert("Please attach before submitting the request.");

                return false;
            }
        } catch (e) {

            if ((this.document.getElementsByClassName('get-attachment').length == 0)) {
                alert('Please attach before submitting the request.');
                return false;
            }

        }
    }
}

Hello @Ramya

Try like below..tested..working...

Note : Make sure to set Isolate script as false

function onSubmit() {
    var getValue = g_form.getValue('software_fieldname');
    if (getValue == 'software name 1' || getValue == 'software name 2') {
        if (this.document.getElementsByClassName('get-attachment').length == 0) {
            g_form.addErrorMessage('Please Attach a file');
            return false;
        }
    }
}
