Most fields in a data entry form are optional by default, meaning that data enterers can leave them blank and still submit the data entry form for approval. The Data Entry Form Template Designer lets you set certain fields as required. Most types of fields, including options lists, text fields, and custom defined fields (CDF), can be set as required. Some elements, such as tables and fields with graphical buttons, cannot be required.

  1. In the form designer pane, select the element and click the Properties button.
  2. If the element can be set as required, the Required check box is available.

  5. Click Submit.
