Catalog Item variable mandatory on only one task

[Jason Stephens]

I need to make a catalog item variable mandatory on only one task. I do not need it to be mandatory when submitted, I just need it to be mandatory on one of the tasks that get generated by the workflow.

Thanks for the help.

Well I ran into a small issue. I need to check for the presence of my variable. As of now, this script runs on every task. I'm not sure of the syntax on that. I need something like:

if (action == 'close_task' && current.variables.lease_new_machine is present)

Not really sure how to check for "presence"...

have you tried

!g_form.getValue("variables.myvar").isNul()

That got it. Thanks!

Where are you scripting this at?
