Enter any name into this area to specify a validation group for the related control. After that, when you enter this same validation group name into a Validation Group area on any action button of any task, it will be checked for validation whenever the action is selected on the form.


Dynamic Rules

The dynamic rules section allows specifying format and warning messages of any element and section. It consists of two parts, one of them is for formatting rules, and the other one is for validation rules.

  • Formatting rules allow you to change the formats (text colour, background colour, style) and visibility of control depending on a condition. 
    Further information can be found here.

  • Validation rules allow you to validate the data that the end user enters.
