Hello Narezzi,

There are a few ways to carry this out:-

On the "OnBeforeInsert" rule, adding your validation code checking the country field is correctly inserted, if not, throwing a ValidationException which will return to the user as a popup when they try to save the record. You would need to add this to the "Address" entity and check the related entity (Field: "EntityID") is a contact rather than an account.

The second, would be to add JavaScript/C# to the save button to stop the form from posting back if the country field has not been correctly filled in.

The advantage of the first method would be that the validation would work for the mobile client and any sData applications you have on site. As far as I can remember, both methods are covered by the Sage Web Developer Training Program.

Many thanks,
Richard Anderson
