Description by Bishop:
The "Wrong Value" pop-up occurred on the New Contracts screen when I tried to save 5.00/kg in the amount/percentage field. Removing the non-numeric text fixed the problem. Can the wrong value message be configured to reference the field in which a bad value is located? ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: It may seem very obvious that non-numeric text does not go in this field and I’ll certainly make a note to this effect in the documentation. At the very least, I would suggest that "Wrong value" is a rather confrontational for an error message.
"Incorrect value in _ field" would be much better.
