Validate after finished interacting

validate-after-finished-interacting

Validate after the merchant finished interacting (not before). Overlap NN/g §7; Polar names it on the component.

Description

Validate after the merchant finished interacting with the field, not while entry is still in progress. Polar names this on the component; it overlaps NN/g timing guidance for when to show field errors. Pass when validation runs after interaction finishes. Fail when an error is shown before the merchant finished interacting, interrupting mid-entry with premature feedback.

When to use

Inline validation on text fields and similar merchant inputs.

Not when

Showing errors before the merchant finished interacting with the field.

Agent hint

Run validation after interaction finishes; do not error mid-entry.

Pass

Validation runs after interaction with the field finishes, not while it is still being completed.

Fail

Error shown before the merchant finished interacting.
