These details are displayed whenever a Single Field Validation Rule is selected in the Project Tree.

The following settings are available.

General

This group has the following settings:

Validation rule is active

This setting is available for inherited validation rules only.

Selecting this setting makes this read-only inherited validation rule editable and independent from its parent. This means that you can make changes to this validation rule without affecting its parent. This setting is usually used only if the associated locator is also overwritten.

If this setting is cleared, the validation rule from the parent class is executed for this inherited class.

Validation rule makes uncertain extraction results valid

Select this setting if you want to force an extraction result that has a low confidence to be valid. You should use this setting only if the assigned validation methods are sufficient and strong enough to eliminate incorrect values. This setting is cleared by default.
