The Validation Screen in Configuration Studio

The Validation Screen is where you can check the work you did on the previous screens for accuracy and completeness.

The overall process that Configuration Studio offers is relatively simple. It consists of four steps, as outlined by the Progress Bar across the top of the screen. The Validation page is the last screen of these four. It is here that you can check the work you did on the previous screens in terms of both accuracy and completeness.

Validating Changes and Saving the Configuration

Any time you make a change, use this standard procedure for saving, testing, and validating your changes.

1. Finish making the changes you want to make on the Configuration and Business Logic screens and click Commit Change.
2. In the Progress Bar, click Validation and then click the Result
3. Rigorously evaluate each field for needed changes. If necessary, return to the Configuration or the Business Logic steps for further work.
4. When you can believe the result is satisfactory, click Submit. A dialog box displays.
5. In the Version Notes field of the dialog box that displays, make appropriate notes. For example, write a description to help you and other teammates understand the changes made to that version.
6. In testing, you will have the option to click Submit and Request Validation or Submit. The distinction lies in how changes are applied.
   1. Clicking 'Submit' applies changes to the template and processes all future documents accordingly, without affecting existing ones.
   2. Clicking 'Submit and Request Validation' not only applies the changes but also reprocesses all test documents with the updated configuration.
