Mandatory Validation

Adding the mandatory validation

1. In the Field Mapping for the FSM-Invoice/Books integration, ensure that the FSM field marked as mandatory is mapped to a field in Invoice/Books.
   
   
   
   
2. If the field now marked as mandatory has been used in custom functions, or integrations  involving FSM REST APIs, then their functioning will be impaired. You might need to revisit them and make the necessary changes.
   
3. The field marked mandatory will be added to the Quick Create layout.
   
   
   
   
4. If the mandatory validation is added to a field in the Work Orders module, then it might affect any existing work order templates you have created for scheduled maintenance plans.
