Form: How to show an error message when the amount entered is too high?

If a user enters an amount that is unrealistically high, we want to flag that to their attention. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Judy,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Are you referring to the Fixed $ Amount field in your form 241653946421155? If so, you can replace it with a Number element. This way, you can set an entry limit. Let me show you:

1. In Form Builder, add a Number element from the left panel menu.
2. Then, click on the Gear icon beside the Number element.
3. Next, go to the Options tab in the right panel menu.
4. Toggle ON the Entry Limits and set your Maximum Number.

Keep in mind that if you delete the existing Fixed $ Amount field on your form, you will lose the data associated with that field. So, instead of deleting it, you can just hide it. Let me show you how:

1. In Form Builder, click on the Fixed $ Amount field.
2. Then, right-click on your mouse, and select Hide.
3. It will then be hidden from your live form.

Give it a try and let us know if you need any other help.
