Conditional mandatory fields - is this possible?
What I would like to do is when a certain value in one field is selected other fields become mandatory.
E.g.:
In Customer (we call them Client) records we have custom fields
[LIST]
[*]Client Type
[*]Educational Institution Type
[*]Business Type
[/LIST]
Each of these are list fields (values can be selected from custom lists).
What I would like to happen is that when Client Type is set to 'Educational instiution' the Educational Institution Type field becomes mandatory and the Business Type field is locked (or goes altogether), and vice versa when 'Business' is selceted as Client Type.
I would think that this should be a very straight-forward process, but I can't find how to do it. We are a small educational charity and don't have an in house developer to script for us and having bought NS don't have the funds to keep paying external people to do simple things like this for us. Ideally I would like some way this could be done through the UI, but as a workaround if someone could post an example script that does this with the limited info I've given you I'm sure I could expand it to work with
