Mandatory checkbox can be submitted?

[Hafila Hatta]

i'm currently developing on washington version, and notice that if you add a few checkbox, these variables are bundled together. now, i want to make these checkboxes mandatory, or else the request cannot be submitted. how can i achieve that?

i have set all checkboxes to "Selection Required" but i can still submit request even if i dont select one of them

Hi @Hafila Hatta ,

you can write an onSubmit client script as below :

function onSubmit() {
if ((g_form.getValue('checkbox_variable1') == 'false') && (g_form.getValue('checkbox_variable2') == 'false') && (g_form.getValue('checkbox_variable3') == 'false')) {
alert('Please Select at least one checkbox');
return false;
}
}

Hi @Hafila Hatta ,

Even if you have set all the checkbox to 'selection required' true, it will not make each Checkbox as mandatory, it will bundle all the checkbox together and even if any one is selected, mandatory will be greyed out , 

So use a on submit client script to check if all the check boxes  which you want to be mandatory are returning  value as "true" .If yes allow the requestor to submit the catalog item .If not stop the submission.

if(g_form.getValue('checkbox_1')==true && g_form.getValue('checkbox_2')==true)
return true;
else
return false;
