Understanding Validations

A validation is an edit check. Validations specific to a single item are item level validations. Validations that do not apply to any single item are page level validations.

You can define a validation declaratively by selecting a validation method. You enter the actual validation edit check in the Validation Messages field. Be aware that if a validation fails, subsequent page processes or computations will not occur. Also remember that the validation you enter must be consistent with the validation type you selected.
