Hi, bathi741

What kind of validation are you planning to add?
Which version of sugar?

version 5.0

added a custom dropdown. If a team selects an specific value in dropdown and selects a team 'X", then give a error message

hi ,
please try this
in custom/modules/yourmodule/metadata/editviewdefs.php
add this to your drop down array
'type' => 'combobox',

then made a folder in includes/Sugarfields/Fileds/Combobox/
(same as definrd in Enum folder) with files EditView.tpl andSugarFieldCombobox.php
in editView.tpl u can add attribute "onchange=yourvalidation()" in "select " tag

and then define this function in
modules/yourmodule/yourmodule.js



i hope it will work


Thanks

Hi, anamikakhadwal

We tried this for creating a custom Address field and it works wonderfully.
Very thank you.

Hi ,

I need a similar validation for dropdown in cases but it should throw an alert when the user clicks on save button.
how this could be done.

Thanks,

Hi Karthik

You just need to define a customCode for the save button adding the alert() before check_form.

Cheers
