Max digits
- Open the form builder.
- Select the required field.
- Navigate to the Field Properties -> Validation section, displayed on the right.
- Enter a value between 1 and 19 in the input box next to Max Digits.
Maximum character length validation will be implemented strictly for all your form fields if a record is added via Deluge, API, or email input. This validation ensures that all the records added via various inputs undergo a thorough check for their field characters to ensure they're on par with the predefined character limits that you set, thereby minimizing error handling.
If you set Max Digits with a value greater than 19, Zoho Creator will display the following prompt:
In the event that you set the Max Digits property of a numeric field with a value that is less than the digits present in existing records, Zoho Creator:
- Allows the existing records to be updated if the data stored in that field is left unchanged
- Applies the new value to validate the existing records if the data stored in the that field is edited
- Applies the new value to validate records added after this change This behavior is in place to ensure that existing records are not affected.
