          Validation Rules, Report Types, and Reports for Program Management

          Validation Rules, Report Types, and Reports for Program Management

          To enforce good practices and consistency when you enter data, add validation rules. To analyze your Program Management data, create report types and reports.

          The Program Cohort and Benefit Schedule objects have fields related to the number of participants. To make sure that the Maximum Member Count remains more than or equal to the Current Member Count, a field that summarizes the number of participants in the cohort, configure a validation rule. You can do the same for the Maximum Participant Count on Benefit Schedule. For more information, see Validation Rules.

          After you create validation rules that ensure good data hygiene, create reports that analyze data and provide insight into your organization's program management work. Start by creating custom report types for Program Management objects. For example, to see accounts that have enrolled in programs, create a custom report type with Accounts as the primary object and Program Enrollments as the next object in the object relationship hierarchy. For more information, see Set Up a Custom Report Type and Analyze Your Data. To understand how Program Management objects are connected, see Program Management Data Model.
