About Edit Input rules
 

An edit input rule provides a conversion facility. Use edit input rules to convert data entered by a user (or received from an external system) from a format that your application doesn't use into another format.

Edit input rules perform conversions, not validations. This rule type does not cause any response to a user about the validity of the input. Use validate rules and edit validate rules for validations.

Edit input rules referenced by a property execute automatically only during HTTP requests, not for properties set through data mapping, Property-Set methods, or other computations.

Edit input rules use Java code for the conversion.

Where referenced

You can reference an edit input rule in the Edit Input Value field on the Property form.
