ValidateDate

The

ValidateDate

validator tests whether a date conforms to a specified ICU date format, for example,

yyyy-MM-dd

. For more information, see DateFormatICU.

The following table describes the properties of the

ValidateDate

validator:

Property	Description
allow_empty_value	Determines whether an empty input is accepted as valid. You can choose one of the following options: Selected. Empty input is valid. Cleared. Empty input is not valid. Default is cleared.
disabled	Determines whether the Script ignores the component and all of the child components. Use this property to test, debug, and modify a Script. You can choose one of the following options: Selected. The Script ignores the component. Cleared. The Script applies the component. The default is cleared.
format_string	Defines an ICU date format.
name	A descriptive label for the component. This label appears in the log file and the Events view. Use the name property to identify the component that caused the event.
negation	Determines whether the validation condition is negated. You can choose one of the following options: Selected. If the condition is true, the input is not valid, and if the condition is false, the input is valid. Cleared. If the condition is true, the input is valid, and if the condition is false, the input is not valid. Default is cleared.
notify	Defines the name of a notification. If the input does not conform to the validation condition, the validator triggers the notification. For more information, see Notifications. Default is cleared.
optional	Determines whether a component failure causes the parent component to fail. You can choose one of the following options: Selected. Component failure does not cause the parent component to fail. Cleared. Component failure causes the parent component to fail. Default is cleared. For more information about component failure, see Failure Handling.
remark	A user-defined comment that describes the purpose or action of the component.
transformers	Defines a list of transformers that apply to the input. The validation condition is applied to the result of the transformers. The transformers have only a temporary effect on the data for the purpose of validation. The input is not permanently altered.
