Note

Data validation occurs automatically when you publish data. For more information, see Validation (Master Data Services).

Prerequisites

To perform this procedure:

  • You must have access to the Explorer functional area.

  • You must have an active worksheet that contains MDS-managed data.

To apply business rules

  1. In the Publish and Validate group, click Apply Rules.

    Note

    The number of members (rows) that are validated at one time depends on a setting in Master Data Services Configuration Manager. For more information, see Business Rule Settings.

  2. The data is validated against business rules and two status columns are displayed. If these columns are not displayed automatically, in the Publish and Validate group, click Show Status to view them.
