Have you ever found yourself with a catalog item that has so many variables you have to expand your list to view to see them all? Some may argue that if your catalog item has too many variables you probably need to create a few catalog items but the reality is that it happens and is often necessary.
Quite possibly the biggest nightmare with these kind of catalog items is developing the UI policies along with the client scripts to ensure the end user sees the correct fields. Often times there are overlaps with what should and should not be shown. And how will the form behave when they change their selections?
If you are like me you have probably spent days tearing out your hair trying to get a catalog item UI to behave. Managing dozens of UI policy rules can be extremely challenging especially when you introduce client scripts on top of them. This solution aims to put an end to that experience. It uses a single onLoad catalog client script that contains a JSON object that holds UI configuration in 1 place. This makes it super easy to maintain and it's by far more flexible.
The video goes over the solution and the setup. I have also included the update set for your use.
