Chapter 4: Cleaning Data with Validation Rules
In the previous chapter, we saw how to build formulas and all the main building blocks that the Salesforce platform delivers, with a focus on operators and functions. We've learned that formulas can be used in a wide range of Salesforce components, from fields to default values, from workflow rules to approval processes, and so on.
In this chapter, we'll be diving into the creation and management of validation rules, a key Salesforce feature that you can use to deliver better quality data through formulas that identify incorrect/unwanted data states.
We'll learn about the following topics:
What a validation rule is
How to create and manage validation rules
Considerations and limitations of validation rules
