Hello May.AlFarsi,

I'm sorry for the delayed reply, we were on holiday.

You can use the code below to compare the current logged in user with the user that is selected in the "Assigned To" field on form submit.

Please replace PeoplePicker in the code with the internal name of the "Assigned To" field.

Code: Select all

fd.onsubmit(function() {

    //check that PeoplePicker has value
	if (fd.field('PeoplePicker ').value().length !=0) {
        SP.SOD.executeOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded((function () {
        var ctx = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
        var web = ctx.get_web();
        ctx.load(web);
        var user = web.get_currentUser();
        user.retrieve();
        ctx.executeQueryAsync(
            function () {
                //get current user login name
                var currentuser = user.get_loginName();

                //get login name of the selected user
                var assignedTo = fd.field('PeoplePicker ').value()[0].Key;

                if(assignedTo==currentuser) {
                    return confirm('Your text here');
                }
                else {
                    return true;
                }

                });
            }), "SP.js");

    }
	return true;
});
