A WORKFLOW THAT FOLLOWS THE WORK

  1. Record updated
  2. Total calculated
  3. Ready for approval
One update. The total follows.Formulas + rollups, working together.

BUILT FOR THE WORK BEHIND YOUR CONTENT

The next step shouldn’t be another spreadsheet.

When the job calls for calculations, approvals or a better way to work through records, add the tools right where your team already works.

01

Let the fields do the math.

Calculate line items with formulas. Roll related records into a project total. Use those values in the same workspace as the rest of your data.

A FORMULA, THEN A ROLLUPquantity * unit_priceLine items → project total
  • Formulas
  • Related-record rollups
02

Give the process a next step.

Turn a record change into an action. Build approval stages, send an email or call a signed webhook as work moves through your workflow.

A PROCESS YOUR TEAM CAN FOLLOWDraft → Review → ApprovedDefined stages. Repeatable actions.
  • Automation
  • Approvals & transitions
03

Make the workspace fit the job.

Save the views your team returns to. Update records inline or in bulk. Shape layouts and rules with visual authoring tools.

Your data stays. Your tools keep working.

Pro extends the workspace you already have. Installed Pro features keep working after update entitlement expires.

How licensing works

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Before your next step.

What does Pro add to Free?

Free provides field validation, managed records, permissions, relationships and basic lists. Pro adds formulas, rollups, automation, approvals, visual designers, saved views, advanced editing, data tools and generated application APIs. It installs as an add-on alongside Free.

Do I need ACF Pro as well?

You can use either ACF Free or ACF Pro with Validated Field Pro. ACF Pro is a separate product, used for ACF input types that require it.

What happens when my update entitlement expires?

Your installed Pro features keep working. Your license provides access to new paid downloads and updates.

How do Pro updates work?

Activate your Pro license in WordPress to receive plugin updates and access your downloads. Free continues using its WordPress.org update channel. Read the license and update guide.

BUILD ON WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE

Your next workflow belongs here.

Keep the fields and records you know. Add the calculations, actions and tools the next project needs.
