Smart Form Validation

Bad data in, bad decisions out. It's that simple.

Most of the bad data that ends up in business systems didn't get there because people are careless. It got there because the forms let it through. A required field that wasn't required. A date that accepted any format. A numeric field that accepted text. A dropdown that let users pick an invalid combination.

Swifty fixes this at the source.

Validation That Happens at the Right Time

Form validation in Swifty happens as you work, not just when you try to save. Required fields are flagged clearly. Value constraints are checked in real time. You get feedback when it's still easy to fix the problem — not after you've submitted and been sent back to square one.

What You Can Validate

Validation rules in Swifty cover the full range of business needs:

Required fields. Mark any field as required for a given form or workflow state. Can't save without it.

Format validation. Email addresses must be email addresses. Numbers must be numbers. Dates must be valid dates.

Value constraints. Numbers within a range. Text with a minimum or maximum length. Dates that must be in the future or past.

Status-based requirements. A field might be optional in Draft state but required before moving to Issued. Validation rules can vary by workflow stage.

Relation requirements. A record might need a linked customer before it can be saved. Relation fields can be marked required just like any other.

Errors That Make Sense

The quality of a validation error matters. "This field is required" is useful. "Invoice date must be set before an invoice can be issued" is more useful. Swifty lets you configure error messages that explain not just what's wrong but why — so users can fix problems without guessing.

Cleaner Data, Less Cleanup

The return on investment for good form validation is measured in cleanup time avoided. Every hour not spent fixing malformed data, chasing down missing information, or correcting mismatched values is an hour your team spends on actual work.

Validation is the unglamorous feature that pays for itself quietly, every day.
