Hi Fiona,

Here is what I suggest without making any changes in the  lightning component. 

 

1. On the Case Object Create a Rollup Summary Field

2. Use the following Validate Rule on the Case Object

Here is the validation rule code for you convenience
 

AND( ISPICKVAL(Status, 'Closed'), EST_Case_Type_Count__c  = 0)

I hope this will help, what you are looking for

Hi Fiona,

Is Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 are custom fields on the case or they are just and input field in the component. Do you know where you store those information on the Case Level?
fiona gentryfiona gentry
Yes they are fields from custom object named EST_Case_Type__c ,here is cmp file if it helps

Case has a master detail relationship with EST_Case_Type__c

Hi,

Please let me know if my solution works or you are looking in a different way.
fiona gentryfiona gentry
Hi Abdul,
Thanks ,but still dont see the validation message,created a roll up summary then added a validation rule like  
AND( ISPICKVAL(Status, 'Closed'), ERT_Case_Type_Count__c  = 0)

Hi,

Which SObject you created a rollup summary? Can you share some details Also on which SObject you created a validation rule (They both should be created on the Case SObject). Any details that help me find the issue.

will reiterate Level1 ,Level2 and Level3 are fields in ERT_Case_Type__c custtom object and Case has Master detail relationship with ERT_Case_Type__c
Abdul KhatriAbdul Khatri
Hi,

Strange so when you try to save the Case with Status = Closed and there is not record in teh ERT_Case_Type__c. You don't see any message from the validation rule. Can you check what you get in the rollup summary when you a record  and when you don't (=0)

Is this the way you child ERT_Case_Type__c custom sobject is define

There is 1 difference though,just curious ,if its preventing,the Level1,Level2,Level3 fields are picklist data type for you,whereas those are Text(100) in my case,will it make a difference?
Abdul KhatriAbdul Khatri
No, that should not make a difference because we are looking the record for that SObject.
Abdul KhatriAbdul Khatri
Hi, 
Can you check how that Rollup Summary field shows up on the UI?

Abdul KhatriAbdul Khatri
Please let me know how I can help you.

This is most out of box solution I can think off. Any other solution will lead us to customization.
fiona gentryfiona gentry
Thank you for your continued help and reply,here is how the rollup summary looks at case page layout User-added image
fiona gentryfiona gentry
Does this validation rule needs to be attached to a profile or role,currently this Case is accessed  via App named ERT and that app has a profile defined?
fiona gentryfiona gentry
Now Worked like a charm,Thank you abdul
