Multi-row Variable Set - check for duplicates (or only accept unique values)

[JLeong]

Hi Guys,

Need help on Multi-row Variable Set. I only have one column (single text), but I need to make sure that user doesn't enter the same value over and over. 

I am doing it on a Catalog Client script. Please assist.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Jocelyn

This is OOB feature in Quebec. https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-servicenow-platform/page/product/service-catalog-management/concept/c_ServiceCatalogVariableSets.html

Variables  for a variable set has an attribute called Unique which does the validation automatically.

Hi @shouvik 

I have set the unique attribute for one of my variables on a MRVS. It doesn't seem to be working. When is the validation supposed to occur out of interest? On change of the variable or on save of the row, or on submit of the form?

Thanks
