Hi @everyone,

Can any one help me on how to make mandatory "work notes" in sc_task table by using UI action. I tried i am able to set "Notes" section instead "work Notes".

function onclieck(){

g_form.setmandatory('work_notes');

}

As already said your syntax is wrong

In Ui Policy  ->Script tab->Execute if true, 

write it and check: 

function onCondition() {

           g_form.setMandatory('work_notes',true);

       }

Hello @CharanV66187530 
1. The spelling of click is incorrect.

2. When you use setMandatory('field_name', 'you specify here as true or false');

Hi @CharanV66187530 

Work Notes is not a normal field, it belongs to journal fields.

g_form.setMandatory() does not work reliably on journal fields like work_notes and comments. That’s why it’s not enforcing.

Use g_form.getValue() and block submission. Try below code it may work for you

function onClick() {

    var notes = g_form.getValue('work_notes');

    if (!notes) {
        g_form.addErrorMessage('Work Notes is mandatory');
        return false; // stop action
    }

    // allow action
    return true;
}

We have to use both Client Script and Script Include to make mandatory.
