    Use case -- "we have a 2 week SLA, but our requesters always seem to randomly pick tomorrow as a due date"

     

    Sample code (this is specifically addressing a request queue, so works because the request hasn't yet been submitted (entry date is blank). Requesters could get around it by submitting and then changing the due date -- so admins should consider setting up additional code to guard against this.

    IF(ISBLANK({entryDate}),IF({DE:Date Field}<ADDWEEKDAYS($$TODAY,10),"Please allow us at least 2 weeks to complete your request"))

     

    Expected result:

      Use case -- "we want our users to provide an answer to a question, that is less than X number of characters"

       

      Sample code:

      IF(LEN({DE:Single Line Text Field})>50,"Please choose a name that is less than 50 characters")

       

      Expected result: attached file

        Nice one @skyehansen,

         

        Flip that coin and you can prevent people from writing MORE than a certain number of characters; not quite as good as seeing the count live as you approach the limit, but still, something.

         

        Regards,

        Doug
