    Validation Help

     Hello,

     I have a form that will be used in the production of "builds" we call it that has components assembled. My form will track the components throughout the build process and it needs to validate whether part numbers and serial numbers are correct. I figured out the part number portion, but now I am stuck on the serial number portion. I will try to describe what I set up the best I can:

    • 2 sharepoint lists going to one form, one receives info, the other receives and submits
    • There are 10 fields on my form to submit a serial number, but not every part requires a serial number
    • I am trying to use validation and condition filters to verify whether or not a serial needs to be entered on the form.
    • I am putting two filters as a condition. One part about this I don't understand is if a condition of the filter is true it stops without checking whether all other filters are true even though I put the AND label on.
    • Because of this I cannot actually validate whether a field needs a SN or not.

    that is the basic of what is happening. I know im probably not explaining this too well, but if you could help in any way I would appreciate it. if more info is needed I will provide it.

    Thanks.

    Hello MPete1310 and welcome,

    If you are using AND between your conditions, it may indeed stop checking if any of the filters return false.  Maybe you want to use OR instead and check for the not case.

     my filter needs all the criteria to be true in order to single out a specific row/column combo...at least that's what it seems like. in order to narrow to a single field on my list to obtain a value say A3.
