Is it possible to use OnChange client script at Onload?

I have a requirement and I want to execute a OnChange client script when the form loads. Is this possible? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi @Arishmit 

No mate, you cant do that technically.

Yes Buddy, It is possible to use OnChange Client script at OnLoad.

I am assuming that the task(For Onload and Onchange) is same, then you simply remove isLoading from line 2 and it will work same for load and change.

Please mark my response correct and helpful, if it helps you.
Please reply if any issue happens.

yes, you can execute an OnChange client script when the form loads by programmatically triggering the onChange event. Use a g_form.setValue() followed by a g_form.getValue() to simulate a change in the field.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === oldValue) {
        return; 
    }
   
    console.log('Field changed:', newValue);
}


if (!g_form.isNewRecord()) { 
    var value = g_form.getValue('field_name'); 
    g_form.setValue('field_name', value); 
}
