Data Migration
Data Validation
The process of ensuring data meets specified criteria, formats, and business rules before or during entry.
Complete Definition
Data Validation is the process of checking data against predefined rules, formats, and constraints to ensure accuracy and consistency. In Salesforce, validation rules can prevent users from saving records with invalid data (e.g., requiring email format, ensuring dates are logical). During migration, data validation ensures legacy data meets new system requirements.
