Disabling Real-Time Data Validation
You can disable real-time data validation on all SFMs so that the data validation logic does not trigger when you are still editing the record. You can disable real-time validation using a custom setting. This custom setting is only applicable to the following types of SFM processes: STANDALONE_EDIT, STANDALONE_CREATE, SOURCE_TO_TARGET_CHILD, SOURCE_TO_TARGET_ALL, and CHECKLIST.
* 
If the DISABLE_REALTIME_VALIDATION custom setting does not exist, data validation errors will be displayed in real-time, as the user is editing the record.
For more information related to other custom settings used in the Go app, see Custom Settings in ServiceMax Go.
To create a custom setting
1. Go to ServiceMax Setup > App Administration > Submodules.
2. Select Module: ServiceMax iPad Client; Submodule: SFM Page and click List Settings.
3. Under Custom Settings, click New Setting to create the following new setting.
a. Setting Id: DISABLE_REALTIME_VALIDATION
b. Setting Name: Disable Realtime Validation

2. Under Group-wide Configuration Settings, select the relevant profile and choose Edit.
3. Select Module: ServiceMax iPad Client; Submodule: SFM Page.

7. Click Save and then click Close.
