Resolving Validation Errors
When validation errors occur in SFM Delivery, the record cannot be saved until the errors are corrected. Error messages identify the fields that contain invalid or incomplete values. To correct these errors, review the error list and navigate to the corresponding fields to update the values.
The steps for resolving validation errors vary slightly depending on the theme used in SFM Delivery. The following sections describe how to resolve validation errors in each supported theme.
