The brand new Validation Rules are already available, and they're going to be your best allies to maintain a clean and homogeneous data base.

These Validation Rules verify that the data introduced in a specific field are compliant with a series of prerequisites. Some examples of Validation Rules are texts that cannot contain spaces or capital letters, a number that must belong within a specific range, or even a credit card number, which must be valid and real.

This is why Validation Rules are especially useful for fields such as Email, Web,  Credit Card or even Passport Number, among many others.

All Validation Rules can be configured and applied to the corresponding fields in ForceManager Admin. Once activated, a user won't be able to save information that doesn't satisfy the criteria stated by the admin, and a warning message will be shown.

Are you an Admin and you want to know how you can start using Validation Rules?
