Set Field Mandatory not working in Workflow

edited Jan 8, 2020 3:32AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 6 comments

Good day to everyone.

I am creating a work flow and I have a state and in that state, there are following actions.

[LIST=1]
[*]Set Field Value on Entry           
[*]Send Email on Entry       
[*]Add Button on Before Record Load   
[*]Add Button on Before Record Load   
[*]Set Field Display Type on Before Record Load     
[*]Set Field Mandatory on Before Record Load
[/LIST]

..in that order. Everything executes fine except set field mandatory. I can see the execution in workflow log but the field is not set to mandatory. No * next to the field label and I can go to the next state without entering any info in the field. Am I missing something basic stuff here? Does "Set Field Mandatory" have some dependencies as it does with Set Display Label?
