The Salesforce adminsitrator in your org can write validation rules in the PK4 TimeTracker objects.


Validation rules are used to ensure that the data entered into records meets certain criteria before the record can be saved. They help maintain data quality and consistency by preventing users from entering invalid data. Validation rules are created using a formula or expression that evaluates the data in one or more fields 


Where Validation Rules Can Be Applied

  1. Standard and Custom Objects: Validation rules can be created for both standard Salesforce objects (e.g., Account, Contact, Opportunity) and custom objects.
  2. Fields: Validation rules can validate data in standard fields, custom fields, and even across multiple fields.
  3. Before Save: Validation rules are enforced before the data is saved to the database. This means that they can prevent invalid data from being stored.

 

Creating Validation Rules

  1. Go to Setup, and select the object for which you want to create the validation rule, and click it,
  2. Click on "New" to create a new validation rule.
  3. Enter a rule name, the error condition formula, the error message, and specify where the error message should be displayed.
  4. Save the validation rule.
