Is there any way when entering a product to make one of the fields mandatory. We use shipping based on weight, and on a few occassions, I have ommitted to add a weight and therefore when someone buys that product there is no p&p charged!!

So, is there a way of making Actinic warn you that you have not entered anything into this field?

Thanks

I don't know of a way to do this with Actinic but if you know SQL you could write a query to list the products without a wieght - it would be a bit more complicated than normal because the product weight is stored in the shipping database and the products are stored in the main catalog database.

I will add this suggestion to the wish list. I like the idea of being able to add your own validation rules into the software.

Thanks Chris - that would be great (and may save me a fortune!)
