Hello Appian fellows,
I would like to explore the possibility of validating data across different tabs.
Request is to display multiple tabs, every one of which should open a dedicated subtab group. Let's say I opened the second tab and am currently viewing the first subtab (see image below) .
My question is, is it possible to validate fields on different subtabs in a way that subtype 2 and subtype 4 have a red underline/red background/red star or any other indicator that there are some required data missing on those subtabs and process cannot continue (Next button would be disabled). Idea is that users don't need to circle through tabs searching for where the missing values are.
Thanks!

Appian will only validate the visible input fields. But, any validation is always done on the data in variables and rule inputs. So, you can easily highlight tabs and sub tabs when some data is missing or wrong.
