how to make field mandatory when group name.manger,members added have changes

[raj765_32]

Hi can anyone pls help me with scenario for,

when a field in group table 

"Name"

"Manager"

"Group Members'

are updated. i have to make a field "Worknotes" mandatory in group table

i have written a before business rule with an update option and written the below code:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

if(current.name.changes() || current.manager.changes() || current.sys_user_grmember.changes())

if(current.u_work_notes.isNil){

gs.addErrorMessage("Please fill data in worknotes field");

current.setAbortAction(true);

}

})(current, previous);

whenever changes are made for the above two fields record is getting saved but i dont want record to be saved unless worknotes field is filled and the above code is not working when group members are added or removed.

Please help me with this

Hi @raj765_32 ,

Please try the below:

In Advance section:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {

    if (current.u_work_notes.isNil()) {
        gs.addErrorMessage("Please fill data in worknotes field");
        current.setAbortAction(true);
    }

})(current, previous);

This will work for both the fields 'Name' and 'Manager' but not for Group members because that is not a field rather it is a separate table. So, we need to write a business rule on that table separately.

Hi @raj765_32 
why don't you prefer writing a "onChange" client Script. 
You can also try UI Policy

Happy Learning

Can you please send me code for group members also?

@raj765_32 , Try the below:

Business rule on [sys_user_grmember] table, before insert

Script:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {

    var grp = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
    if (grp.get(current.group)) {
        if (gs.nil(grp.u_work_notes)) {
            gs.addErrorMessage("Please fill data in worknotes field");
            current.setAbortAction(true);
        }
    }
})(current, previous);
