Definitions: Errors vs. Warnings
Description
Error
A hard stop in the user's daily processing. This data is invalid or missing and must be resolved before the user can move beyond the validation step.
Warning
A potential issue with complete data. This data is also invalid, but you can move beyond the validation step and return to resolve/ignore warning at a later time. If only warnings remain and you wish to ignore the warnings to continue with processing, do not click Revalidate. Revalidation will return the warnings each time until they are resolved.
