Columns of the list include an Update? check box, the key of the object, a RuleSet and version (for rules), and the status. Check at least one box before starting the bulk validation:
Click Run to begin revalidation. Click Stop to pause revalidation. Results are presented in the Results column as a check mark or red X. Hold the mouse pointer over the red X to review at least one error.
Click the pencil icon in any row () to review or correct any that fail.
After making corrections, you can click Clear Status and rerun the validation test.
A dynamic display identifies the key of the object being processed; a counter shows total rows and rows that failed validation.
This operation is similar to opening and saving each rule or data instance. (In addition, some but not all RuleSet prerequisites and class restrictions are checked.) If an instance fails validation, the previous saved version is unchanged.
If an instance passes validation, the History tab is updated with your Operator ID,
the current date and time, and current system in the
Updated row. For rules, a history detail
instance is added with your Memo and the notation Bulk
Update
.
Warning messages may appear. Warning messages do not indicate that the rule failed to validate or save. Use Application Preflight tool to see all warnings.
You can revalidate rules that belong to a locked RuleSets version, including RuleSet versions that form the Process Commander product. The History tab and history details are updated to reflect the successful revalidation; other aspects of the rule (as visible on the form) do not change.
