Description

BLOCKED BY: no digitized forms exist yet

TICKET ORIGIN: (person/situation): Maria / contract requirements.

RELATES TO BIZ REQ: Solution must ensure data validation for date, addresses, and other forms of data that can be validated.

RELATED TICKETS: #471

ISSUE DESCRIPTION / CONTEXT:

Data Field validations are required to improve data integrity and prevent bad entries. They will be required on every digitized form and/or data entry screen we create.

- Things like dates, locations, permit numbers, borden numbers, names, organizations etc. can be checked or selected via controlled dropdowns.
- Other fields can be validated via existence checks (e.g., not allowing an application to be submitted without a shapefile)
- If one of the fields fails a verification check, an error will appear to tell the user which field has failed WITHOUT clearing the form, and the form cannot be submitted.

Research direction

Start with related ticket #471 and confirm whether digitized forms now exist, since this issue is explicitly blocked on them. Review the digitized-form and data-entry-screen entry points once available; no files or tests are named here. Done means required fields are validated, failed fields show errors without clearing the form, and invalid submissions are blocked.
