Edit Form - Required Fields do not work when submitting form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by porebkon 2

Hello Everyone!

I have an issue when trying to make fields required.

I marked them as required and when I am adding new item to SP List it works fine but when I want to edit specific item which already exists then after submitting the form if required fields are not filled then it is getting blank and I do not see message that indicates that field is blank.

 

Do you have any solution for this case?

    Fields in an Edit form should be picking up the default value from the item they are Editing.  So a required field should never be empty when you submit the form.  Make sure the default property on the card and field are set to pick up the existing value.

    Most of them are picking data from the SP List but some of them are required in next steps (after submission).

    Additionally when user will delete any input (for example by mistake) the it should be required.

     

    I checked the same database again. I created new app and I required field in edit form and it worked properly so something has to be wrong with my settings.
