Hello,
It is feasible to send an alert, but without restricting data entry?, As if it were a constraint.

Thanks

@fsilva, you could display the error in a note question type as outlined in the image shared below:

You could also use the acknowledge type (with a relevant filter and maybe required):

  • Acknowledge prompt that sets value to “OK” if selected.

See Help Center article: Acknowledge question type — KoboToolbox documentation

This is a bit stronger than the note option: The enumerator has to confirm the msg (if required is set = true). and you will see this in the data set (“OK” value).i
