11/19/2024, 2:37 PMI assume because the validation is happening serverside, and your clientside changes to the isMandatory aren't available serverside.
but I don't know that for a fact, just sepculating

11/19/2024, 2:38 PMyou could add you own validation on recordsave in your client script

11/19/2024, 2:40 PM... its also possible that whatever list of mandatory fields the validation happens against is only set once when the page is loaded, and your changes aren't reflected in that list

11/19/2024, 2:43 PMI was naively thinking about records and forms with saved and known mandatory fields available serverside... that absolutely would NOT apply to suitelet generated forms though.
if this is a suitelet generated form, you could try recreating the form with the new mandatory fields, rather than just changing their isMandatory values, that might trigger whatever native validation exists to update properly.
Anthony OConnor
11/19/2024, 2:56 PMi.e. parameterize your isMandatory list in the GET call and only set those values once during createForm/pageLoad
when logic it happens serverside that changes the list instead of updating the field directly, add it to the list and reload the form

You still need to do the validation in saveRecord entry point if you want it from saving on client side.
