Assigned to should be mandatory when closing sc_task via UI button

[Naveen87]

Hello Developers,

On sc_task, When 'Close Task' UI button is clicked, then it must check, If assigned_to & solution is filled or empty.

If empty then through an error msg. If filled then close the task.

I have wrote client script & called on Action name but it isn't working.

Please suggest if i have missed something.

function onSubmit() {

    var action = g_form.getActionName();
    var assignedTo = g_form.getValue('assigned_to');
    var solution = g_form.getValue('u_solution');
	
    if ((action == 'close_catalog_task') && ((assignedTo == '') || (solution == ''))) {
        alert('Assigned To and Solution fields are mandatory. Please fill them out before closing the task.');
        return false; // Prevent the UI action from executing further
    }
    // If both fields are filled, allow the UI action to proceed
    return true;
}
}

Now as I'm editing it,

I have checked, Client callable. 

Nothing is happening now when Close Task UI button is clicked. Stuck on same page.

Earlier it was closing without checking Assigned to & solution.

Not sure if gsftsubmit must be called.

@Ankur Bawiskar ,

I tried but no luck.

sc task is still getting closed with any alert or setting fields Mandatory.

function onCloseTask() {
    var assignedTo = g_form.getValue('assigned_to');
    var solution = g_form.getValue('u_solution');
    if (!assignedTo || !solution) {
        alert('Assigned To and Solution fields are mandatory. Please fill them out before closing the task.');
        g_form.setMandatory('assigned_to', true);
        g_form.setMandatory('u_solution', true);
        return false; // Prevent the UI action from executing further
    }
    // If both fields are filled, allow the UI action to proceed
    //return true;
    gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'close_catalog_task'); //call action name
}
if (typeof window == 'undefined')
    closeTask();

function closeTask() {
    current.u_closure_code = 'Successful';
    current.state = 3;
    current.update();
    action.setRedirectURL(current);
}
