Require Account Name

[labatj]

Hello all,

I have been researching this for quit some time now and have not been able to find a suitable solution.

One of my clients is looking to make the Account Name a required field when adding Contacts.
Without this being required many of the end users are skipping that step and then are not able to bill or place orders for these people.

If anyone has an idea of how this can be done or any suggestions to try, I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

If you go into the \custom\modules\Contacts\metadata\editviewdefs.php and find the account_name you can add the following.
array (
'required' => true,
),
Then do a quick repair rebuild and it will work just fine.
