Validation

Validation that is run during an upload. Alternatively, it can also be run independently of the upload process. The sections below outline the steps to run validation.

Validate Selected

Validate Selected will only validate selected records in the worksheet that contain an upload action.

Rows without an upload action will not be validated unless they relate to a record within the data structure that has an upload action.

  1. Using the cursor, select the records in your sheet that require validation.

  3. Click the Validate Selected image54 option.

  4. Validation will begin on the selected records.
