.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.
[Link], [Link], [Link] 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 [Link]
AF = [Link]
IF [Link](AF) < 1000 OR [Link](AF) > 9999) THEN
ETEXT = "[Link].1000.9999"
CALL [Link]

.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 [Link], [Link], [Link] 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 [Link]
IF [Link]([Link]) EQ '' THEN
TEXT = "[Link]"
CALL [Link]([Link])
END

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.
[Link], [Link], [Link] 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.
[Link], [Link], [Link] are available for manipulation in
.OVERRIDES
Slide 14
Workshop
