Hello,

How can I make it mandatory for users to enter customer details, including the address and phone number, before they can proceed to create a third party? I have successfully made the email address mandatory, but the address and phone number fields are still not mandatory. I would appreciate any advice on how to enable these requirements.

Hi @Dolfine  
You have to create entries in Home-\>Setup-\>Default values/filters/sorting Mandatory form fields tab

for phone enter  
societe/card.php?action=create and phone in the respective fields

for address enter  
societe/card.php?action=create and address

You can globally hide the input fields using css but not the labels by going to Home → Setup → Display → CSS Style

> #idprof1, #idprof2, #idprof3, #idprof4, #idprof5, #idprof6 {  
> display: none;  
> }
