How do I make an element required?

If you'd like to make an element required before a user can complete the record, please follow the instructions below.

STEP 1. With your form loaded in the Form Builder, highlight the element you want to be required.

STEP 2. Under the Element Properties tab, click the Required checkbox.

STEP 3. Save your form.

Please note that if a required field is hidden, then the record will process and be able to be submitted. 

What is Client Validation?

Client Validation allows...

• Form builders to prevent illegitimate data to be uploaded to the server.
• Form builders to set multiple validation criteria on an element.

The client validation value must be true for a particular element to pass validation. This smart control is located on the Element Properties menu (on the right-hand side of form builder).
