Validation Rule Sets

A validation rule enforces requirements on data that a user types in a task window field. The requirements can enforce a data type or format or can ensure that the data is valid in the context of other data in the task window.

One or more validation rules are grouped in a validation rule set. A validation rule set is then associated with a profile attribute. For example, you can create a validation rule set that contains a Format Date validation rule, which enforces a date format of mm-dd-yyyy. You can then associate the validation rule set with the attribute that stores the start date of an employee.

Note: You create validation rules and rule sets in the directory configuration file or in the User Console.

The Managed Object Properties window displays a list of validation rule sets that apply to the CA IdentityMinder directory. To view the details of a validation rule set, click the name of the rule set to open the Validation Rule Set Properties window.
