Save button validation

Hi Everyone,

I am new to apian and I am bit stuck on logic for validating grid records on save button. Heres my scenario I have been working with- I have grid with 5 columns, first 2 columns are read-only as the user entered data will be seeing on this form in my process model, 3rd column is where user has to enter the values if the 4th column is unchecked. 5th column is mandatory when  4th column check box is true. 

I want to save records when either column 3 is filled or save when column 4 is checked and column 5 is filled. the below code isn't working 

validations:
if(
and(
count(local!items) = length(local!items.column1),
count(local!items) = length(local!items.column2),
or(
count(local!items) = length(local!items.column3),
and(
count(local!items) = count(local!items.column4 = true),
count(local!items) = length(local!items.column5),
length(local!items.column3) = 0
)
),
),
"",
"Please ensure you have entered Address Book Number or checked Exclude with comment"
),

Thanks in advance!

    Hi  ,

    I have coded with the help of this statement - 'I want to save records when either column 3 is filled or save when column 4 is checked and column 5 is filled'.

    Try the below code and let me know if it's working

    if(

    or(

    and(a!isNotNullOrEmpty(column3), a!isNullOrEmpty(column4)),

    and(a!isNotNullOrEmpty(column4), a!isNotNullOrEmpty(column5))

    ),

    null(),

    "Please ensure you have entered Address Book Number or checked Exclude with comment"
