How do I use Data Validation?

OnboardIQ's Data Validation feature allows you to validate specified applicant fields before placing them into a stage.

Adding a New Data Validation

1. Navigate to Company Settings by hovering over your name at the top right corner of any OBIQ page.
   
2. Click on 'Data Validation' on the left hand side. (You may need to scroll down a bit!)
   
3. Once on the Data Validation page, click the blue 'Add Validation' button.
4. Give your Validation Group a title, select the stages to validate, as well as the fields to validate.
   
5. When selecting fields to validate, you'll be able to add different types of fields. You can select a pre-existing field (already in applicants' profiles, in which case the data validation would update the existing field value), or add a new field (in which case it would be appended to applicants' profiles).
   
6. Once you're done adding fields to validate, hit the 'Save Settings' button.
7. Now, when move applicants into the stage you selected in the Data Validation Group, the following (or similar) window will pop up, asking you to validate the field(s) you selected:
