Quick and easy way to create a client list.

Steps of creation:

1. Ok, so now we have a form with fields. Good. Let's have a talk about validation. Click on link “Set validation” that is below the fields. A new window with all validation types will appear. Choose those that are needed. Select presence, validate only on submit for all fields.

Presence - this option does not allow a user to leave fields blank.  

Validate only on submit - if you select this system feature it will check all the fields only after you press “Create” button.

You can also select No duplicate entries for "Username" field. Select Email for "Email" field .

1. Enter you data. It should look like this

If you have done everything correctly you will see the first record.
