Selection Area
You can use the settings in this area to determine which of the listed records will be included in the validation process.
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Validate Only New and Updated Records |
An option button that indicates (if selected) that the table will list only records with a status other than Closed and a duplicate validation status of Not Validated. Thus, if you process the records, only the new and updated records will be mass-validated. This option button is selected by default. |
| Validate All Records |
An option button that indicates (if selected) that the table will list all records with a status other than Closed. In this case, if you click Process All, all previously validated records are validated again. Before validation starts, the system sets the duplicate validation status of each record to Not Validated; if validation is interrupted, you can resume it by running the process with the Validate Only New and Updated Records option button selected. Attention:
Duplicate validation of all records can take a long time if a
large number of records must be processed. |
