This can be achieved by writing any one of the catalog client scripts as shown below:
A) Configure OnSubmit catalog client script as below:
function onSubmit() {
var numberofemployees = g_form.getValue('how_many_employees_select_box'); //Read the select box variable
if (numberofemployees == "7")//Check your variable choice condition as per the requirement
{
try {
var attachments = document.getElementById('header_attachment_list_label');
if (attachments.style.visibility == 'hidden' || attachments.style.display == 'none') {
alert(getMessage('You must attach the completed form before submitting this request.'));
return false;
}
} catch (e) { //For HR Service Portal
var count = getSCAttachmentCount();
if (count <= 0) {
getMessage('You must attach the completed form before submitting this request.', function(msg) {
alert(msg);
});
return false;
}
}
}
}
B) Configure OnSubmit catalog client script as below:
function onSubmit() {
var condition = g_form.getValue('request_related');//Get the value of the catalog variable
if (condition == 'ABC') // Specify the variable choice value condition
{
var countRequired = 2; // define the total no.of attachments to be attached before submit
if (window == null) {
// portal
if (this.document.getElementsByClassName('get-attachment').length != countRequired) {
alert('You must add attachments before submitting this request.');
return false;
}
} else {
// native view
var length = $j("li.attachment_list_items").find("span").length;
if (length != countRequired) {
alert('You must add attachments before submitting this request.');
return false;
}
}
}
}
