How to make a required field AFTER data has been inputted...

Laserfiche Forms Version 10 How To

Hey everyone,

Second question from me today, so appreciate any feedback I can get! We have a table whereby users have to input numbers into each of the fields, if applicable. We do not want to make these fields required by default as they're not always going to be needed, however, if a user does input a number into one of those fields we want to ensure we require other fields within that row to be filled out as well. Basically, make it required after the form loads, if the user needs that section of the form. The only way I can think to tackle this would be through JavaScript. Does anyone know how to achieve this? Additionally, the default value of those number fields is 0.00. Thanks!

You can make the rest of the rows required, but setup field rules so that they are hidden. The rows will still show, but values will not be required until the user inputs into your trigger field. This will apply independently for each row automatically.
