Configure Field Rules for Status-based Validations
Background
Field Rules allow you to make specific information for an asset type required, or show a warning that recommended information is missing, when the asset reaches a specific status. This helps teams capture important information at the right point in the asset lifecycle.
Field rules apply only to data capture when an asset changes status. They do not control field visibility, automatically change field values, or validate Attachments or Related Items.
Things to Consider
Rules can be applied to all asset types or restricted to specific asset types
When a required rule condition is triggered, users cannot save changes to an asset until the specified fields are completed.
