Validations in workflow

Hi,

I m working on MDM5.5 SP5.

I have used following document to create ISBN validation:

<b>Parsing and Validating Numbers(Check Digits) in MDM 5.5</b>

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/34ae996e-0901-0010-4691-99a...

Now when i execute this validation manually it give me error when ISBN number is wrong.

But when i assign the same validation to Workflow, my workflow proceed even if number is worng.

It gives me error only if i keep ISBN field blank.

can anybody explain me how validations work with workflows???

Thanks,

Maheshwari.

From what you've described, you're checking 2 things:

1) is the ISBN empty

2) is the ISBN formatted correctly

Are these checks executed by 2 different validations?

Also, all validations executed within a workflow should be set to execute automatically (i.e. "Automatic Execution" is set to either Warning or Error).

HTH,

Hi Michal,

I have given Validation name itself.

And what does he mean by "try to SAVE the same with other steps too."????

Thanks,

Are you using the MDM workflow, or attempting to do this through the Portals?
