When are conditional validations triggered in CLM field validation?

• A. On login
• B. On save or stage entry
• C. On contract rejection
• D. Only during export

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that conditional validations in CLM field validation are tied to the contract’s data lifecycle, not to user login or export actions. They run when you save the record and when you enter a new stage. Saving the contract triggers validations to ensure current field values meet their rules, and entering a stage triggers validations for the data required in that stage to prevent moving forward with incomplete or invalid information. This behavior keeps data consistent across stages and prevents progression until conditions are satisfied. Choices like logging in, rejecting a contract, or exporting do not inherently trigger these field validations.
