Each individual chart field that comprises the 40 character MFK must be populated with an existing chart field value in order for the validation tool to retrieve the proper "Result" field message of either "Valid" or "Invalid". This includes if all zeros for a field like Sdept or Oacct for example, will be used for a transaction, then the zeros must be entered, I.e. blanks are not legitimate values for any chart field. In addition, existing valid chart field values must be populated for each chart field for the validation tool to work as expected, E.g. an Iacct of '0000' does not exist so if it's entered to the validation tool, then the Result message will correctly display "Invalid", along with the reason the MFK is invalid.
If the status of a WhoKey is the only information you need, then please use the WhoKey Administration application to look that up. |
