Short Text Field
To add a text field with a maximum character limit of 255, choose Short TextField from the Field type dropdown.
After saving the field, a free text field is created, allowing users to store sample information as a text string, with a maximum of 255 characters.
Short text fields also support links. If a web address, such as http://www.elabjournal.com or www.elabinventory.com, is entered into the field, an active link will automatically be created.
Input Validation
Use Validate input to validate the data input before storing a sample.
Choose one of the following validation criteria:
Text Contains - value must include one or more characters
Text Starts With - value must begin with one or more characters
Text Ends With - value must end with one or more characters
Regular Expression - validate the value with a custom regular expression (Find some examples here)
