Approval With mandatory Comment

22:15 Feb 19, 2025

Hello

I'm trying to make the approval comment field mandatory for a DCM. The idea is that the approval cannot be approved or rejected if a comment hasn't been added to the section. That is, all approvals need to have a comment added to them.

I try to marked the comment as obligatory in the object "Basevisa" but it didnt work.

Any idea how can I make the comment mandatory.

Thank you

Hello Laura,

In classic UI there are two approaches: either one provided here (but don't forget to disable the AcceptApprovalWithoutComment system setting) or creating a replacing view module for the PreconfiguredApprovalPage and add this code:

define("PreconfiguredApprovalPage", [],
	function() {
		return {
			attributes: {},
			methods: {
				save: function() {
					const approvalComment = this.get("Comment");
					if (approvalComment.length &gt; 0) {
						this.callParent(arguments);
					} else {
						Terrasoft.showErrorMessage("Comment is mandatory");
					}
				}
			},
			diff: /**SCHEMA_DIFF*/ [] /**SCHEMA_DIFF*/
		};
	});

As for the Freedom UI - as was mentioned here and here - this is not avialable in Freedom UI as for now. I will notify our R&D team about your question to prioritize the task to develop the logic for them.
