Can we set confiform rules for field definition while on modified and not on created

[Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta]

I have a confiform which have field 1 and field 2.

When a user submits a new entry then these fields are not mandatory. 

But when a user click on edit of these submitted records then both field 1 and field 2 are required during modification.

Can it be possible

The easiest way is to check for id

id:[empty] - for new records -> create

!id:[empty] - for existing -> edit

But this is not working 

Field name( or regular expression): id

Condition: !id:[empty] AND Name:[empty]

Action to execute: Validation Rule

Message: Name Required

To do this, you can use the "on modify" condition in your validation rules to enforce that Field 1 and Field 2 are required when a record is being edited. For example, you can use a script or rule like:
if (entry.status == 'modified') { if (!field1 || !field2) { return "Field 1 and Field 2 are required when modifying."; } }
This ensures that when a user edits an existing record, both Field 1 and Field 2 are required. However, when creating a new record, these fields remain optional. Also, you could create a specific form or section related to fresh herbs or another product category, where you define the fields conditionally based on the context.
