Form Verification

Form Verification

RideInbox provides form validation and full data verification to ensure that the information entered into booking forms is accurate and in the correct format. Some fields only require validation, confirming the data is in the correct format, while others require full verification against internal or external data sources.

Verification Checks

For certain fields in RideInbox, full verification is used instead of simple validation. This involves comparing the data entered into a field against a trusted external or internal data source to ensure its accuracy. Fields that require full verification typically include addresses and flight details.

Example: Place Name Field
Consider an external order containing a place called ‘Barcelona’. When this data is imported into the system, the Place Name field undergoes verification rather than simple format validation.

If the place name is ‘Barcelona’, the system will run automated verification tests. Since Barcelona is a valid and recognised location, the field will pass the verification,

If the place name is ‘Barc’, the verification test will fail, as it does not match any recognised locations. The field will display with a red border, accompanied by an error message: “No results found.”
