Filling Fields
24 Chapter 2
Fields Defined by a Calculation
The only time you would notice a calculation in fill view is when a field
fills in automatically.
In the example below, the
TOTAL
field automatically added the
amounts entered in the first and second fields. The
TOTAL
would
increase if the third and fourth fields were filled as well.
Field Validation
Fill text fields can be configured by the creator to:
• Require that you enter information in a field and do not leave it
blank.
• Require that you enter specific information in a field.
• Require both of the above.
• Require that you choose from a list of choices.
This is
field validation
and ensures that information entered in a form is
consistent. For example, you may be required to enter a date in a
validated
Date
field. You would receive a reminder prompt from
OmniForm Filler if you attempted to enter anything other than a date.
