## Configure Validation Rules

Once enabled, you can define the precise conditions under which a submission will be accepted or rejected:

- **Status**: Use this option to **Enable Advanced Form Validation**. You can also choose the condition to determine whether the form submission will proceed or fail.
- **Validation Type**: Select how the validation logic will apply. Based on your selection, the submission will be rejected if all defined conditions are met.
- **Error Message**: Write the specific error message you want users to see if the form submission is rejected due to invalid input.
