Data Validation for user inputs

Good Day All,

 

I'm looking for a tool for Validation of column and show appropriate message to user for the validation. For example 

1. Col A to Col L should be blank if not throw a message to user saying the same its not blank.

2. Col M should not be future date and always be current date if not throw a message to user saying the same

And workflow should not proceed until the conditions are satisfied

 

Thanks in advance!!

Hi @atcodedog05 

Is there any limitation to using Message Tool in the workflow. I'm using total of 16 tool for different columns to produce different messages. Its working fine until 13th but does not work from 14th.

I'm attaching sample of my workflow and the File. It would be great if you could take a look.

Thanks @atcodedog05 . I got the mistake I was doing. Rightly highlighted. I was not choosing the correct option from Message type. Thanks again🙂
