Validation and cleanse are optional elements for a primaryObject, one2ManyChild, and many2ManyChild.
The IDD Configuration Manager does not create the cleanseFunction element - it merely binds the cleanse function to columns in the base object.
The data that the IDD application user has entered into the subject area attributes is fed into the cleanse function as inputs. The base object record is then updated by the outputs from the cleanse function.
The cleanse function can report validation errors if it is configured with a validationStatus output. If validation errors are found, then the IDD application displays any errors next to any field or fields with problems.
Create the validation function library using the ValidationCleanseLib sample in the Informatica MDM Hub Resource Kit as a template.
Using the Cleanse Functions tool in the Hub Console, deploy the created cleanse library into the ORS.
Using the Cleanse Functions and Mappings tools in the Hub Console, create cleanse functions and mappings to be used in IDD applications.
Using the Configuration Manager, configure these functions for use in an IDD application (in the subject area Edit dialog).
Deploy and test the cleanse and validation functions. Verify that all fields are properly cleansed and validated.
