In the Minimum field, you can enter the minimum value that can be entered in the field in the Client.
In the Maximum field, you can enter the maximum value that can be entered in the field in the Client.
Decimals can only be entered when using Floating Point. Floating point Minimum and Maximum values can have up to 6 decimal places.
The Minimum and Maximum options are not available for Multiline Text Box configuration.

If you want to require that values entered adhere to the formatting and character requirements specified in the mask, select Full Field Entry Required.

The Clear Value When Empty option is available for fields configured with masks. When selected, when the field is empty or contains only spaces, spaces will be removed from the field to ensure the field is truly empty, allowing custom actions requiring empty fields to be run correctly.
