Can i benefit from List validation to force fields to be conditionally mandatory
I have a custom list inside sharepoint on-premises 2013, which have these fields:-
1. Status. drop-down(Open,Closed).
2. Type. drop-down(item,Box).
3. Comment. Multiple line of text (allow pictures and tables).
4. Actions. Multiple line of text (allow pictures and tables).
5. Detailed Description. Multiple line of text (allow pictures and tables).
now i want to set this validation:-
1. if the Status is set to Closed, then the user must enter values inside the Comment.
2. if the Status is set to Closed and the Type = Box, then in-addition to the above case, the user must enter text inside the Actions and Detailed Description fields.
so i am not sure if i can benefit from the list validation to perform the above 2 validations?

- DeletedI think you need scripting to achieve conditional requirements in Sharepoint. Maybe PowerApps has the feature you're looking for but I don't know much about that and since you're using 2013, hence classic layout, I believe scripting would be the easiest approach. Lemme know if you need help on that.
