Hello I need to make multiple fields required in my VFE forms. I have read recent posts about, going to the advanced tab in the edit field, then to the Automated Page Close handling: and Choosing the Force option. This does not do anything as I have tested it out mulpitle times is there a way to ensure that these fields are required?

Did that and when we end the document it does not enforce the fields to be required. Is there anything else that you might suggest. I have done what you have said going to the tools and then options. And then in the fields that I want required going to the advanced tab and forcing.

Oh okay, so in the tools-->Options then in the Automated Page Close Handler you have both Include page close handlers and Check Page close handlers after time out checked.

Then from there you go to the specific field that you want required and go to advanced tab--> then check the automated Page Close Handling force option and it makes that field requried? But when I end the document and sign it inside of centricity it doesn't throw back an error when that field is blank. I just wanted to make sure my process is correct.

Ya we are on VFE Version 5.01 and centricity 10.1.3.300 so I am not sure if there might be an issue with that part.

Hi,

I see that this was an old post...

This is not working in Version 10.

Just wondering if anyone found a way to make it work?

Ya if anyone has found a way that would be great to make a field required so it checks it before the document is signed.

This is a known issue with CPS 10 that was addressed in a later service pack. If you are using the latest service pack, you will want to report the continued defect to GE Support. The more that report an issue, the higher on the 'fix list' it moves. 😉
