The following validation types are available in the Blueriq library:

Table of Contents

minLevel2

BankAccount

This type checks whether a bank account number is valid. You can use this validation on attributes of base type string.

Syntax

Code Block
<type><locale>

 

  • Type - The type can be either 'bank' for bank account numbers or 'giro' for giro account numbers, or a combination 'bank/giro'.
  • Locale - Specify the country code for which you want to validate the bankaccount number, e.g. nl_NL for the Netherlands.

Examples

  1. Assume you have added the validation type BankAccount with parameters <bank><nl_NL> to the attribute Client.BankaccountNr, then
    • Client.BankaccountNr = “123456789” is valid;
    • Client.BankaccountNr = “123456780” is invalid.
  2. Assume you have added the validation type BankAccount with parameters <giro><nl_NL> to the attribute Client.BankaccountNr, then
    • Client.BankaccountNr = “P55555” is valid;
    • Client.BankaccountNr = “55555” is invalid.

IBAN

This type validates a string as International Bank Account Number (IBAN) performing a basic mod-97 calculation (ISO 7064) and country specific pattern checks. IBAN has no parameters.

Examples

  • “TN5910006035183598478831” validates as IBAN.
  • “TN5910006035183598478830” does not validate as IBAN.

 

Warning
the validator may return true for invalid bank account numbers. No bank specific account restriction checks are performed.

 

Date

Use this type to construct validations for specific date formats. You can use this validation on attributes that have base type date.

Syntax

Code Block
<comparedate><comparator><compareday><comparemonth><compareyear>

 

  • comparedate - Compare the attribute value to a specific date, the dateformat of this date should be 'yyyy/MM/dd'.
  • comparator - The type of comparison, this can be 'less', 'equal' and 'greater'.
  • compareday - There are three options:
    • a number between 1 and 31; the day part of the attribute value is compared with this value.
    • '+' followed by a number; the day part of the attribute value is compared with the current day '+' the specified number.
    • '–' followed by a number; the day part of the attribute value is compared with the current day '–' the specified number.
  • comparemonth - There are three options:
    • a number between 1 and 12; the month part of the attribute value is compared with this value.
    • '+' followed by a number; the month part of the attribute value is compared with the current month '+' the specified number.
    • '–' followed by a number; the month part of the attribute value is compared with the current month '–' the specified number.
  • compareyear - There are three options:
    • a number; the year part of the attribute value is compared with this value.
    • '+' followed by a number; the year part of the attribute value is compared with the current year '+' the specified number.
    • '–' followed by a number; the year part of the attribute value is compared with the current year '–' the specified number.

Examples

Suppose that TODAY = 07-10-2004.

value = 01-02-2004<2004/02/01><equal>

value < 1 year ago<><less><><><-1>

 

Number

This type checks the boundaries of an attribute with base type number, integer, currency or percentage.

Syntax

Code Block
<maxIncl><minIncl><maxExcl><minExcl>
  • maxIncl - The attribute value should be less than or equal to this value.
  • minIncl - The attribute value should be greater than or equal to this value.
  • maxExc - The attribute value should be less than this value.
  • minExcl - The attribute value should be greater than this value.

Regexp

This validation type checks whether a string value is part of a specified set of strings. You can use this type to validate a string as a correct postal code format, telephone number or email address.

Syntax

Code Block
<posRegExp><negRegExp>
  • posRegExp - The attribute value should satisfy this regular expression.
  • negRegExp - The attribute value should not satisfy this regular expression.

The following characters are allowed in these regular expressions:

Code Block
^[0-9]{4}\s{0,1}(?)[a-zA-Z]{2}$

The regular expressions used in several Blueriq Studio functions are common Java 1.4 expressions. For a complete documentation we refer to the online java documentation.

Examples

Postal code

Code Block
<^[0-9]{4}( ?)[a-zA-Z]{2}$>
ValueResult
“1000 AA”valid
“1000AA”valid
“10001AA”invalid

 

 

Telephone number

 

 

Code Block
<(^\+[0-9]{2}|^\+[0-9]{2}\(0\)|^\(\+[0-9]{2}\)\(0\)|^00[0-9]{2}|^0)([0-9]{9}$|[0-9\-\s]{10}$)>

“010 123456789”invalid

 

 

E-mail address

Code Block
<^.+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.([a-zA-Z]{2,4})$><(@.*@)|(\.\.)|(@\.)|(\.@)|(^\.)>

SofiNumberValidator

This type checks whether a social security number is valid. You can use this validation on attributes that have base type string.

Syntax

Code Block
<locale>
  • locale - Specify the country code for which you want to validate the social security number, e.g. nl_NL for the Netherlands.

Examples

Assume you have added the validation type SofiNumberValidator with parameter <nl_NL> to the attribute Client.SocialSecurityNr, then

  • Client.SocialSecurityNr = “123456782” is valid;
  • Client.SocialSecurityNr = “123456789” is invalid.

StringLength

This type validates the length of a string value.

Syntax

Code Block
<minLength><maxLength>
  • minLength - The length of the attribute value should be greater than or equal to this value.
  • maxLength - The length of the attribute value should be less than or equal to this value.

Examples
