Overview

Validates entity code fields against formatting rules including length limits, prefixes/suffixes, and regex patterns. Ensures consistent code formatting and prevents data entry errors.

When This Action Runs

Entity validation during save operations to enforce consistent code formatting and prevent invalid codes.

How It Works

1. Validates length against min/max limits
2. Checks prefix/suffix requirements (case-sensitive)
3. Tests regex patterns for complex format rules
4. Reports errors with specific validation failure messages

Key Parameters

Parameter 1: Min Len,Max Len (Optional) - "MinLength,MaxLength" format (e.g., 3,10)

Parameter 2: Prefix,Suffix (Optional) - "Prefix,Suffix" format (e.g., INV,_TEMP)

Parameter 3: Regular Expression (Optional) - Regex pattern for complex validation

Database Tables Affected

• Target Entity - Reads code field for validation only

No database modifications - only validates data and prevents invalid saves.

Important Warnings

⚠️ Rule Compatibility

• Ensure length limits don't conflict with prefix/suffix requirements
• Test all validation rules together to ensure compatibility
• Complex regex patterns may impact validation performance

⚠️ Case Sensitivity

• All prefix/suffix matching is case-sensitive
• Consider impact on existing codes that may not meet new rules
