 I am trying to do a simple check on a paragraphField or any field(integer, text, decimal field). 
 The validation is not working for empty or null. I tried giving a!isNullOrEmpty(ri!value), Null(ri!value), ri!value=null.

Let&amp;#39;s say we named that variable as activeValidations.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now if the value of activeValidations is true, then don&amp;#39;t show the confirmation else you can.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope that helps!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Empty value Check not validating on button click</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/124618?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 19 Jan 2024 05:23:50 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:ab729a69-093c-4bd2-9fcf-6c92254c638c</guid><dc:creator>venkatrea696188</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes Currently After Confirmation it Validates fields AFAIK there is no setting to change it&amp;#39;s behaviour , But we can achieve your requirement in couple of ways , i would suggest adding a new button just for&amp;nbsp; performing required checks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Empty value Check not validating on button click</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/124613?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 19 Jan 2024 04:49:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:a13f6a9d-6c1f-40e2-a3a0-7ecda7cd3ddd</guid><dc:creator>hiron0583</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hello, Is there a setting to display a confirmation message after performing the required checks? I believe that currently a confirmation dialog is displayed first, and after pressing Yes, the required checks are performed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Empty value Check not validating on button click</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/107578?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Feb 2023 10:22:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:607e4def-09eb-4518-909f-4d51bc3ea90a</guid><dc:creator>natashan0002</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Perfect.

&lt;p&gt;But, feel free to add a form based validation, or wrap the text field into a section layout and add your validation to it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Empty value Check not validating on button click</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/107566?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Feb 2023 09:18:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:eebb37e5-55b4-456e-8737-182490c971af</guid><dc:creator>natashan0002</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Stefan,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
