ABSTRACT:
Conditionally branching a validation allows branch-specific child validations to execute based on the values of data in a specific record. This allows for example a conditional branch to call another validation to validate records having particular category field values, family values and/or audience level
ame/values. Embodiments comprise an interface that assists users through the use of automatic tokenizing and/or pick lists of field names and fields values, including a measurement builder for entering legal tokenized measurement values with applicable units of measure. Embodiments of the invention allow knowledgeable users to rapidly create expressions to ensure that the legal syntax and semantics of an expression are not violated while providing the user with pick lists and measurement values within legal ranges and with applicable units of measure. Validations rules are generated and performed on desired records in a computer system database without requiring programs, scripts or queries to be written.
