Points to Consider

  • When the condition fails, the Object Validation rule will display an error message and the Field Modification rule will display a warning message.
  • If you use a delivered rule that validates a date condition and have approvals enabled for the document type, the data will still be committed during the transaction. This is because the validation is a warning message and doesn't prevent data from being committed.
  • You can configure an Object Validation rule. For example, Validate on Submit button (exit region) for unique Document Record.
  • You can't validate transactions based on date, if approvals are enabled for the document type.
  • You must use the System Document Type when creating the rule, so that the rule is language independent.
  • Transactions that are pending approval in the Document Records flow and Document Records plug-in section won’t be considered when evaluating a rule.
  • You must use Partial Page Refresh (PPR) if your rule includes defaulting a value in one descriptive flexfield (DFF) segment based on the value in another DFF segment.
