Input Rules

All editable fields are checked to approve that entered data is valid. If there is incorrect data, the field is highlighted red.

Incorrect entries are:

  • Not enough characters in a name or a phone number. Names of monitoring units, units groups and users must consist of at least 4 characters. Other objects like places, geofences, drivers, report templates, etc. can have names from one character.
  • Excessive number of characters (more than 50) in names of monitoring units, units groups and users.
  • Letters in numeric fields (phone numbers, sensor values, radius, fuel consumption and trip detector settings, etc.)
  • Forbidden characters:
    • double quotation marks '' « »
    • curly brackets { }
    • the backslash \
  • Partly forbidden characters:
    • spaces are not allowed at the beginning and at the end of editable fields, however, they are allowed at the middle);
    • comma cannot be used
      • in report templates – in column names, table titles and statistics fields,
      • in numeric fields as the delimiter (for entering fractional numbers the dot is used).

If any entry in a dialog is not valid, it is impossible to save changes or create an object, because OK button becomes not available. There can be also an alert when trying to save incorrect data – Incorrect entry.

Phone numbers and e-mail addresses

Phone numbers must be in international format. They must contain all necessary codes (country code, communication statement or city code, and then the phone number itself). Brackets, spaces and hyphens are not allowed. Except numbers, a phone can contain only one character – plus (+) at the beginning. When you need to enter several phone numbers into one field, separate them from each other with commas (don't use any spaces), for instance, +19176726154,+15551234567.

E-mail addresses must be in the format user name – the “at” sign (@) – domain name. E-mails can contain letters of Latin alphabet as well as dots (.), hyphens (-) and underscores (_).
