Data Validation for all Forms

Families are currently able to submit forms (inquiry, event registration, etc.) with inaccurate information in email, phone number, address, and birthdate fields without receiving any error messages. By adding data validation features to all Blackbaud forms, we would receive more accurate information from our prospective students.

    In a database, this is usually a default requirement to avoid Garbage-In Garbage-Out (GIGO) situation. Similar to DOB, please make record fields such as phone numbers to have validation and not free-form. Thx
