## Best Practice
For a plain required-field check, prefer `TestField`, which tests the condition and raises the error in one call. When the condition is non-trivial and has already been evaluated, call `FieldError(FieldNo)` with no message to get the localized default (`must have a value`, `is not valid`, etc.), or pass a short lowercase predicate such as `FieldError(FieldNo, 'must be a positive number')`. Start the custom text with a lowercase letter so it reads as one sentence with the auto-inserted caption, and use a field-number reference (or the field token) rather than a hard-coded field name so captions and translations stay correct. Let the framework supply the caption, value, table, and key context for you.
See sample: `fielderror-default-message-logic.good.al`.

## Anti Pattern
Re-testing a condition you already evaluated, or passing a fully formed sentence like `'The Amount field must be positive.'` to `FieldError`. The result reads as `Amount The Amount field must be positive. in Gen. Journal Line ...` — capital letter mid-sentence, caption and value repeated, and a stray trailing clause. Reviewer signals: a `FieldError` argument that names the field, restates the current value, starts with a capital letter, or ends with a period. Each is a sign the author treated `FieldError` like `Error` instead of as a predicate slotted into framework-generated context.
