Validation expression, with a Boolean field

Question

Hello,
My issue is as follow: I want to make sure that if attribute 'A' = "1"; then attribute 'B' has values.
Note: attribute 'A' is boolean.
I did not succeed in setting up such a formula [I succeeded in setting up the opposite formula only: 
IF(Attribute 'A',IS_NULL(Attribute B))
Thx for any help,
Rémi Dusaud

Hi Remi,
attribute 'A' is a field of type Boolean in main table, right which has two values 1 and some other value, right?
if this is right then i hope you have also set True Value as 1 and False Value as something in MDM Console. Because Boolean field has only two values which you can set through Console by default True value = TRUE and False Value = FALSE, here you need to change it to 1 and other value as per your requirement.
For the same this expression works as given by me in above post.
If this is really Attributes, name as Attribute 'A' and Attribute 'B' in taxonomy mode of data manager.
and by Boolean you mean here that Attribute of type Text but has two values 1 and some other value.
if this is true then you want a record in maintable is associated with a category which is linked with these two Attributes, and if Attribute 'A' has Attribute Value as 1 then Attribute B should not be null, in this case firstly you have to create a validation and then right click on this validation and then Add Branch select here Branch Value(category which is linked with these two attributes). a new validation gets created with this branch Value.
now write expression in this Branch validation expression as same:
IF(attribute 'A' = "1", IS_NOT_NULL(attribute 'B'))
But here you need to select Attribute 'A' and Attribute 'B' from Attributes Tab in validation expression.
and select "1" from Text Values Tab in validation expression.
let me know if you still face, in both ways this expression is working fine at my end.
