Hi,

Please correct your check as below:

Project Def. :1-1: = 'T'

Use field PROJ-PSPID for Proj Defn. Use 'FldComp' button on right side of table to enter ':1-1:'

I hope you have selected 'E' in message type.

Hi Mohammed,

:1-1: means first character of the field. If you want to check more characters you can change this accordingly. eg :1-4: for checking first 4 characters of field. You can even check fields in between like :3-6:

With help of your developer, create message in appropriate message class and assign it in message section.

MSG i got :

Message no. GB071

Diagnosis

This message is issued if a validation prerequisite is not met, and the user who defined the validation has not defined an error message.  This message is the standard message displayed when a validation prerequisite is not met.

Procedure

Correct the values entered and repeat the action.  Ask your system administrator to define a message for the special error.

Hi,

Without message class you cant give personalised message. You can choose some standard available message if it suites you.

Regarding the validation unsuccessful error, the diagnosis clearly mentions that pre-requisite is not met. Are you trying to create project with profile other than 'ABC'? Also is it error message or info message?

After checking this, if you still have issue paste your validation screen shot here and tell us parameters used during project creation.
