How does RoI validation work in Copla Registry?

Form-level validation

Each form includes different types of required fields:

• Red asterisk (*) fields

  • Mandatory for saving the form

  • If not completed, the form cannot be saved even as Draft

• Blue asterisk (*) fields

  • Mandatory for export

  • Form can be saved as Draft

  • But cannot be marked as “Ready to Export” until completed

• Fields without an asterisk

  • Optional

  • Not required for saving or exporting

Export validation

Validation is triggered when clicking “Export”:

• Checks all forms marked as “Ready to Export”

• Verifies that all required fields are completed

• Displays errors if any mandatory data is missing

• Aligns export period with contract start and end dates

• Compiles data into registry tables/files

• Generates a .zip package and downloads it to your browser

Error display behavior

• Errors are not shown during initial data entry

• Validation runs when:

  • Form is marked as “Ready to Export”, and

  • “Update and Stay” is clicked

• Missing or incorrect fields are then highlighted

Bottom line:
You can save incomplete data as Draft, but full validation is enforced before export to ensure the registry meets submission requirements.
