Form Setup Guide

This part of the guide will show you how to put the DQ Email Capture tool onto a form.

Note: for the guide, we will use the Account Table and the default Account form, the steps are the same for any table and form, so please use whichever table and form is appropriate for your CRM.

1. Open the Tables tab and then open the Account Table

2. Open the Forms section

3. Edit the Account form

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all fields on the form that you want the control to appear on.

7. Click Save and publish

8. The control will now appear on the Form in the CRM.

Note: it may take a few page refreshes for it to show up.

Control Properties

Record ID

The field containing the Unique Identifier for the record. 

How to Populate: In the list of fields there will be a field with the name of the table, i.e. on the Account table there will be a field called "Account" This is the field which contains the ID for the Account record.

Invalid Result Behaviour

Defines how the control responds to an invalid result, the options are: 

• Take no action
• Displaying a Warning

• Preventing the user from saving the record

Triggered By Keys

Should the user be able to trigger the control using keys on the keyboard?

Options:

• None - No Keys will trigger the control, only clicking on the button will trigger it.
• Tab - Hitting Tab will trigger the control to process the phone.
• Enter - Hitting Enter will trigger the control to process the phone. 
• Tab & Enter - Either Tab or Enter will trigger the control to process the phone. 

Retry Period

How many days after completing an Authentication should the results be considered accurate? After this period the user will be able to process the Email Address again.

Note: This setting only applies to Authentication results, Both Validate and Format are static results, but an authentication will degrade over time, this is because once you have pinged the mailbox to confirm whether it is genuine or not that email could become inactive at any given time in the future, so the older the result is the lower the chance that is in still accurate.
