When validation for property structures is requested (either directly by a user or through a validation job) a new validation run is created on the Application Server. With the validation request comes the definition of the validation subjects. The subject of a validation run can be a list of validation objects of the same type. Table 1 shows the available validation objects.
Note that for a successful validation of the validation subject the user requesting the validation must have the appropriate permissions to read data of that object.
After creation of a validation run that run is immediately put on the job queue and will start as soon as the job engine gets it from the job queue. The results of the validation run are stored as a validation result structure.
A validation run always has a defined status. Table 2 lists the status a validation run can be in.
