Unique Attribute Value Rule

This validation rule checks if

a) other objects of same type in same project contains the same attribute value e.g. checking if a document number is unique among all files OR

b) if several attributes in the same object have the same value e.g. if the same person has made several approvals in a Document Object.

The comparison of values is done case-insensitive. If the attribute value in question is not unique, an inconsistency is displayed.
