- 01
The starting point
Submitting the advisory consultations form incomplete triggered one generic failure notice. Which field was at fault was left as a puzzle.
- 02
The problem
When it comes to advisory consultations, a single missed field could cost someone the whole form. People re-typed correct answers because the page refused to say what was actually wrong.
The build
What we built
Labels persist, errors attach to their fields, and valid entries survive failed submissions. The form requests business structure, advisory topic and reporting deadline, with optional items marked as optional.

After launch
What changed
With advisory consultations, visitors receive a specific instruction when something needs attention and can fix it without starting over. Staff have a form they can demonstrate or troubleshoot without embarrassment.
In the client's words
My test was to submit the advisory consultations form half-finished. It flagged the gap and saved the rest. Simple, and correct.
