isMandatory

property of the field to

false

in the

beforeLoad

event. However, it's important to note that this might not be possible for all fields, especially system fields like Quantity Type, as their properties are often locked and cannot be changed. Here is a general example of how you might do this:

javascript
function beforeLoad(scriptContext) {
    if (scriptContext.type !== scriptContext.UserEventType.CREATE)
        return;

    var form = scriptContext.form;
    var quantityTypeField = form.getField('quantitytype');
    quantityTypeField.isMandatory = false;
}

Please replace

'quantitytype'

with the actual ID of the Quantity Type field. Also, please note that this script should be deployed to the Inventory Item record type. Remember, this is a general approach and might not work for the Quantity Type field. If this approach doesn't work, it's likely that the mandatory status of the Quantity Type field is hard-coded into the system and cannot be changed.
