Virto SharePoint Custom Mask Field Web Part Description
Virto SharePoint Custom Mask Field Web Part is a complex piece of software meant to serve as means of helping developers working in SharePoint to input information in lists more swiftly, using two additional features, specifically by creating pre-defined masks for a precise type of data to be entered and by conditioning fields in those lists to only comprise unique values, thus avoiding repetitive entries.
Its main scope is represented by lists, sites and site collections. Generally, SharePoint lists comprise phone numbers, credit card numbers, addresses, and other similar types of data. What Virto SharePoint Custom Mask Field Web Part offers in addition to existing SharePoint functionality is meant to reduce the time and effort it regularly takes to input information in lists.
The component comes with a series of mask templates that can be used and customized for users’ individual data entry requirements. As such, they can work with ‘Text’, ‘Date / Time’ strings, ‘Existing Column Value’, ‘Site Name’, ‘List Name’ and ‘Number’. These leave a lot of room for adjustment, in order to provide users with a maximum level of flexibility.
Moreover, Virto SharePoint Custom Mask Field Web Part enables developers to design list fields so as to contain unique values only, displaying a message to inform them of duplicate entries, when necessary. It thus allows users to only store relevant information and prevent wasting space on repetitive data.
Upon successful installation, the component integrates into the SharePoint dashboard, allowing users to access it from the ‘Settings’ section, in the ‘List Settings’ selection, then begin fiddling with its functions. The comprehensive help documentation can guide less experienced developers through every step of creating and modifying unique fields and custom masks.
