Grid validation

A sample rule that uses the Validator interface and the com.unicacorp.uap.grid.validation.plugin.GridValidatorPluginImpl validator is delivered with Marketing Operations.

When you add a form that contains an editable grid to a project template, you can specify a data validation class and rule to validate data that is entered in the grid.

When you work with validation rules, be aware that:

• The files that contain your validation rules must use a specific format. When you import a rules XML file, it is validated against the gridrules.xsd XML schema.
• Typically, a rule is specific to a form, as rules are tightly bound to the underlying table structure. As a result, use each rule with only one (editable grid) form.
• Marketing Operations ships with several sample rules that you can use for most validation tasks. You can create and import more custom rules files as needed.
