You can verify data in fields to ensure that the correct information resides in the form fields and the custom properties in Perceptive Content.

When you synchronize form fields and the custom properties in Perceptive Content, the system automatically verifies that the user entered the correct data type in a field. If a user enters an incorrect value type and selects another field, the system automatically clears the data. If a user enters the correct type of value in the field and the format is incorrect, the system automatically updates the information to reflect the correct format.

For example, if a user enters an alphabetic character in a field that accepts only numbers, the system clears the value when the user selects another field. However, if the correct type of data is entered, the field may perform additional formatting. For example, if the correct number format includes a decimal, after the user enters a number without a decimal in a field, the system automatically adds a decimal value of .00.
