==Validation Options==
Other than Numeric, Alphabetic, Date and Allow Empty, [[User|users]] can define their own validation or criteria for a [[Custom Fields|custom field]] by creating a user-defined validation based on JavaScript syntax.
==To have a [[Custom Fields|custom field]] only accept certain values==
>n or @value@>n
If @value@ is not found, the system will automatically put it at the very front of the validation criteria.
Where
n is any number
> means greater than
< means less than
>= means greater than or equal to
<= means less than or equal to
== means equal to
Example
To have a [[Custom Fields|custom field]] only accept values larger than 100, enter
>100 or @value@>100 in the Custom box.
==To limit the amount of characters that can be entered into a field==
@value@.length<n
Where
n is any number
Example
To limit the number of characters in a field to 35 or less
@value@.length<35
==To have a custom field only accept values in a range==
@value@>n && @value@<n
Where
n is any number
&& means "AND"
|| means "OR"
! means "Not"
() means brackets :-)
Example
To have a custom field only accept values between 100 and 200, enter
" @value@>99 && @value@<201 "
==To perform pattern matching==
isMatch(@value@, pattern, isEmptyOK)
Where pattern is
L = Letter
N = Number
A = Alphanumeric
AND
isEmptyOK is
True or False
Example
To validate 9 digits SIN number, put this into the box
isMatch(@value@, 'NNNNNNNNN', false)
==To allow only numbers and one other character==
isFloat(@value@.replace(/c/g,""),true)
where
c is any character
Example
To allow a field to only hold numbers and a semi-colon
isFloat(@value@.replace(/;/g,""),true)
