    Hi, can you share snapshot of both your entity form metadata and the form/page itself?

     

    a few things you can check:

    • have you cleared the cache?
    • is the field present in the form/visible?

    Validation section does not contains anything. and one by one i have taken screenshot and then added over here. i hope you will understand it.

     

    Please find below form/web page.

    Regarding field itself is internally customer field.

    Hi, can you try changing the Type to Value

     

    if you want the Set Value on Save option, you also need to tick the box Set Value on Save
