External validators that support additional metadata

InfoSphere® MDM includes external validation rules to make additional metadata fields mandatory for Add type transactions.

These external validators affect the following elements:
Table 1. Elements affected by external validators
Group name Element name
DWLVGroup AliasName
AdminEObjCdInternalTxnTp component_type_id
DWLInternalTxn ComponentTypeId
AdminEObjComponentType component_class
InternalTransactionTypeBObj component_type_id
ComponentTypeBObj component_class

You can disable these validators and pass null values for the mentioned elements; however, these additional metadata elements must be populated for the new or extended business objects that will be used by common features.
