making a variable on a task mandatory based on the Task State

[patricklatella]

hi all,

seeing several threads on this topic, but wondering what the right solution would be.

I've got a variable on a catalog item that is only shown on a specific task.   Want the variable to be mandatory if the user selects "Closed Complete" for the state.

Seems simple, but my script isn't working.  

onChange client script?   field I want mandatory is "approval_required".   the script below is not working

anyone know the right way to achieve this?   thanks!

Please try g_form.setMandatory("approval_required", true) // variables. is not required in client script. It is required when you try to access variables in Server side script

Looks like you haven't selected the variable name in dropdown.

Thanks for the replies.   Shishir, "State" isn't a variable, it's a field on the sc_task table...so it's not in the dropdown

Deepak, I tried your suggestion but it didn't work.

does g_form work for the fields on the task?
