The Validation tool is used to check data for completeness and quality.

This tool works on facility, vertical asset, and survey data. Right-click on > Macro (inline-media-image)

 to open the Validation window.  Note that the Validation window screenshot below is from InfoAsset Planner Water.  A similar validation window with slightly different system validations is available in InfoAsset Planner Sewer.

The Validation window has many basic options along the top toolbar including options for saving a validation > Macro (inline-media-image)

, resetting back to the default criteria > Macro (inline-media-image)

, adding/subtracting custom validations > Macro (inline-media-image)

, and editing the validation scope > Macro (inline-media-image)

. 

In addition, the Validation window has many built in system validations.  You can edit the criteria for these system validations by either selecting the criteria cell or selecting > Macro (inline-media-image)

 after selecting the desired validation row.  Notice that the system validations may not be deleted or edited beyond the criteria cell; however, custom/user defined validations may be created and stored in the bottom section of the window.

After selecting the desired validations with specified criteria, you can select > Macro (inline-media-image)

 to run the validations and view the results.
