.VALIDATE 1) When is the method executed ?

The next step in the life cycle of a transaction, is for the user to
either do both validate and commit or only commit. This method
is invoked during both a validate or commit operation
3) How is the method used ?
 The subroutine must be named <Application-Name>.VALIDATE
 Write a paragraph each for each field requiring validation and a
paragraph each for each Associated Multi-value field requiring
validation.
How? When?
 It’s a good programming practice to write the paragraphs and their
invocation using GOSUB, in the sequence of their appearance on
the web-page.
What?
 Use AF, AV, AS to specify the fields which raised the errors.
 R.NEW, R.NEW.LAST, R.OLD are available for manipulation

2) What is the method used for?

Used to raise Errors for violations in business rules. The IN2
routines, if any, attached to each field is executed. Followed by the
specific code validations that are written in the .VALIDATE method

.VALIDATE

E.g. – Check if the account category entered in the record is within the range 1000 –
9999.

SUBROUTINE AC.DEBIT.CARD.VALIDATE

AF = AC.CATEGORY
IF R.NEW(AF) < 1000 OR R.NEW(AF) > 9999) THEN
ETEXT = "AC.CAT.RG.1000.9999"
CALL STORE.END.ERROR

.OVERRIDES

1) When is the method executed ?

After errors are corrected by the user, Overrides if any, are
raised, when the user clicks on Commit.

3) How is the method used ?

 The subroutine must be named <Application-
Name>.OVERRIDES
 Any application which does not block the ‘I’ (Input) How? When?
function, can generate overrides using the
.OVERRIDES method.
 The overrides are also stored along with the record. What?
 Use R.NEW, R.NEW.LAST, R.OLD for manipulation

2) What is the method used for?

To raise Overrides on encounter of inconsistent
information in the page, on Commit.

.OVERRIDES

 E.g. : - Raise an override if the Settlement Account is not specified for an

account closure

SUBROUTINE ACCOUNT.CLOSURE.OVERRIDES

IF R.NEW(AC.SETTLEMENT.ACCT) EQ '' THEN

TEXT = "AC.CASH.TYPE.CLOSURE"
CALL STORE.OVERRIDE(CURR.NO)
END

TEXT = ACL.ACCT.NOT.BELONG.CUST':FM:CUS.NO

SUMMARY

 The .VALIDATE method is invoked during both a validate or commit

operation. It is used to raise Errors for violations in business rules.

 Use AF, AV, AS to specify the fields which raised the errors.

 R.NEW, R.NEW.LAST, R.OLD are available for manipulation in

.VALIDATE

 The .OVERRIDES method is used to raise Overrides on encounter of

inconsistent information in the page, on Commit.

 The overrides are also stored along with the record.

 R.NEW, R.NEW.LAST, R.OLD are available for manipulation in

.OVERRIDES

Slide 14
Workshop

 Write the .VALIDATE, .OVERRIDE for the DEBIT CARD application

as per the requirement in the requirements document
