How do I make a field required for some users but not everyone?

You can not, out of the box, make a field required for a specific users. But you can do this job by implementing a custom sugarLogic formula and Dependency SetRequired.

Save the attached file in custom/include/Expressions/Expression/Boolean/

Then create a SetRequired Dependency whch has as trigger:

isUserInList(createList("user_1", "user_2"))

Go to Admin -> Repair and execute the actions:

• Rebuild Sugar Logic Functions
• Quick Repair and Rebuild
• Rebuild JS Grouping Files
• Clear Additional Cache

Hi Katie DelValle,

I noticed you mentioned Role-Based Views. The solutions offered above do not use Role-based Views, but they provide for a scenario that Role-Based Views cannot support: Being able to see the field when it is not required.

Field requirement validation happens in the layout, so anything that hides a required field (calculated dependency or Role-based views, for example) will make the field not required when it is hidden.

The only way to have a field visible but conditionally required is to use a custom code solution like those provided above.

I hope this helps!
