FORMULA LANGUAGE

@Failure
Example

Indicates that input to a field does not meet validation.

Syntax

@Failure( string )

Parameters

string


Return value

string


Usage

@Failure is intended for use only in input validation formulas.

@Failure does not terminate execution of the formula. Use @Return to force a formula to exit.

A field passes validation if its input validation formula returns @Success (which is the value 1). Any other return value means failure, and a text return value is displayed as an error message. The use of @Failure in an input validation formula is not required, therefore, but is recommended for clarity.
