  • 1.  Mandatory Fields automatically added to Project Create Layout

    Posted Nov 29, 2018 04:23 AM

    Hello,

     

    When I make one of the attributes mandatory, it is automatically getting added to project Create layout.

    When I remove from the create layout and Save, it is automatically again getting added to create layout.

     

    This attribute is already configured as non-mandatory in another sub-page. Now we want it as mandatory and when I make it as mandatory, automatically comes in the Create Layout.

     

    As soon as i remove the Mandatory condition, it is gone from create layout.

    How to solve this?

     

    Regards,

    Divya

    An "Attribute" being mandatory means that it must be provided when an instance of the project is created - this is why you see it on the project-create screen (and it would also be validated as mandatory if you  tried to create a project through XOG).

     

    If you want a field to be required on a data-entry screen, then you need to set the Views-[Field] settings for the on-screen field, specifically the "Value Required" flag - that only applies to the on-screen field if it is displayed on screen and does not affect the underlying attribute.

    Hi David,

     

    I tried that option. Out of two attributes, one attribute still come up in the create layout.

    Is there anything else I need to check.

    You need to remove mandatory at attribute level
