Assign Category fields with required fields

Hi,

When assigning Category fields to a datamodel, and hitting Save, the fields are validated and I get a message that a required field is not filled in.

Is this by design, or configurable, or maybe a bug? I want the field to be required, but having to fill it in on the datamodel will set the field to a default value for all products attached which sort of defeats the purpose of having users fill it in as a requirement (they can then just hit save and not notice the default value).

Hi Justin,

I see your point..

So basically with this problem, we need to turn validation OFF on attributes with the "Required" settings in the EditScreen group.. and maybe also attributes with RegEx validation..

Would that solve your problems?

Hey Søren,

Yes, I think that would solve it!
