Problem
Dynamic View identifies required fields, but when those required fields remain blank, the field labels are not visually prominent enough to immediately draw the user's attention. Users may overlook mandatory fields and receive validation errors only when attempting to save or submit changes.
Suggested Enhancement
When a required field is empty, display the field label in red (or another configurable warning color) until the user enters a valid value. Possible behavior:
- Required field completed:
- Field label appears in standard formatting.
- Required field empty:
- Field label appears in red text.
- Optional red asterisk remains visible.
- Validation state updates dynamically as users enter data.
Benefits
- Improves form completion accuracy.
- Reduces submission errors.
- Helps users quickly identify missing information.
- Aligns with common UX patterns used in modern web forms and enterprise applications.
- Minimizes frustration during record updates and approval processes.
Example Use Case
When project team members are updating Dynamic View records, several fields such as target date, owner, risk level, or status may be mandatory. Red field labels would immediately highlight missing information and guide users toward successful completion without trial-and-error validation.
