Enabling and Disabling Validation Rules

Introduction

The Enable/Disable Rules page allows you to disable and enable OnSIS validation rules. The page displays all currently implemented rules, including the rule Error Code, Error Message, Severity, and the Disabled flag indicator. All rules are enabled by default; however, you can disable rules that are not applicable to your district or that you may not currently want to use. If required, rules that have been disabled can be re-enabled. Disabled rules do not appear on the Validation Errors Viewer page.
