Set Custom Field As Mandatory

if(frm.doc.material_request_type=="Material Issue") {
	frm.set_df_property("project", "reqd", 1);
}

You can add this in the js file of the DocType to toggle a field as mandatory upon some condition.

Hello,

I paste this code under project in Material Request but it is not working :frowning:

Try using it from onload or setup function. Project function will only be triggered after you enter something in its field.

Hi @ossphinc

Got to “Setup > Custom Script > New”, enter “Material Request” as “DocType” and enter the following script into “Script”:

frappe.ui.form.on("Material Request", {
  refresh: function(frm) {
    if(frm.doc.material_request_type=="Material Issue") {
		frm.set_df_property("project", "reqd", 1);
	}
  }
});

Save - Now it should work properly :slight_smile:

Cheers!
