Number Fields

Number fields only allow users to enter numerical values. Depending on the field properties, numbers may or may not be permitted to contain negatives or decimals.

Example: The first box in an Address field only allows users to enter a street number.

Number Field Component Information

Use the Component Information pop-up Form grid with pencil edit component info icon to edit the field's properties.

Field	Description
Property Name	Identifies the property associated with the field(s). This relationship helps third-party developers correlate form data with the properties available in the back-end.
Label	Sets the text that will be displayed on the form.
Hidden	Indicates that the field should be hidden. This is useful for simplying forms while still setting a default values for the field.
Required	Forces the user to enter information in this field in order to save the record. Note: The Required property for the Category field is "True" by default. For all other fields, the Required property is "False" by default.
Read Only	Designates the field as read-only, which prevents the user from entering data on this form.
Carry Over	Enables/disables the green Carry Over button for the selected field. To prevent users from seeing Carry Over buttons throughout the entire form, the grid the form is attached to must be edited to hide the Display Carry Over Buttons button. More details Note: Fields marked as read-only never display the Carry Over button in Lucity Web, even if this option is enabled.
Width	Sets the width of the field. This is automatically changed when the field component is adjusted in the Form Layout Editor.
Max Value	Sets a limit for the largest value a user may enter in this field. Leave this field blank to provide for no upper limit.
Min Value	Sets a limit for the smallest value a user may enter in this field. Leave this field blank to provide for no lower limit.
Decimal Depth	Sets the number of digits allowed after the decimal point.
Default Value	Determines what value will automatically appear in this field when a new record is created using this form. Unless the field is marked as read-only, the user can overwrite the default before submitting the form.
