How to restrict an integer field to not enter decimal values.

[Pavan S]

We are having an integer type field in a table, and we want to restrict that field to not enter the decimal values.

We have tried a client script for the string type field but unable to do for integer type field.

Can anyone help?

Please find the attachment of the field type info.

Hi @Pavan S ,

You can create onchange client script on the integer field as shown below, Tested in my Pdi its working

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }

    var regExTest = /(^100$)|(^([1-9]([0-9])?|0)$)/g;

//change the backend name according to your config

    if (!regExTest.test(newValue)) {

        alert("The price allows only integer values");
        g_form.clearValue('u_full_name');
        g_form.showFieldMsg("u_full_name", "The price allows only integer values", "error");
    }


}

Hi @Pavan K2,

So my response isn't lost in the thread, see the below tried and tested Client Script from my PDI. I can only assume something is misconfigured on your implementation. See the below screenshot to help you.

Hi @Pavan S ,

Create a onChange client scirpt for field with below script :

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

    if (newValue !== '' && newValue.indexOf('.') !== -1) {
        alert("Decimal values are not allowed in this field.");
        control.setValue(oldValue); or clear the value...
    }

}
