Consider the following rules and guidelines to create basic rule associations:
•Basic rule associations with a maximum or minimum value consider only the first 16 digits of numeric values.
For example, if you specify 20 as the maximum value and the input is 20.09123456904589098743, the rule considers 20.09123456904589 and ignores the remaining digits.
•You can't create basic rule associations for boolean fields and dynamic fields.
•You can't create multiple basic rule associations for a field with the same validation or transformation function.
•When users enter value for a field and switch to a different field in a business application, basic rule associations are run.
•A basic rule association with an external validation function must use a validation rule associated with the Cloud Application Integration process. The validation rule must contain param<n> as the input field name, where n is the position of the input field. Otherwise, the rule association fails.
For example, when you configure an external validation function for fields, such as First Name, Middle Name, and Last Name, the validation rule must contain param1, param2, and param3 as the input field names.
•When a field with an external validation function is updated in a business application, MDM SaaS sends the value of the field as the value of param1. For example, if the value of the First Name field with a basic rule association that uses an external validation function is updated, MDM SaaS sends the updated value as the value of param1.
•When you configure basic rule associations with functions, such as maximum length, minimum length, maximum precision, and maximum decimal scale, ensure that fields don't contain null or negative values.
If fields contain null or negative values, MDM SaaS doesn't apply rule associations to these fields.
•When you configure basic rule associations with functions, such as maximum value, minimum value, data range, and regular match, and select business entity fields for validation, ensure that these fields aren't null.
If inputs fields are null, MDM SaaS doesn't apply basic rule associations to these fields.
•Basic rule associations run sequentially in the order they are listed on the Data Quality tab of a business entity.
