You can configure both built-in fields and custom fields to be required. While you can set any custom field as a required field, only certain built-in fields are eligible to be set as required fields.

### Built-in fields that can be made required

Some built-in fields support being set as required while other built-in fields are automatically required by default.

The following built-in fields can be made required:

| **Field name**         | **Required** | **Additional notes**                                                                                                                                 |
