Within X3 many a times we come across deferred validation option. The deferred validation is nothing but the postponing of the validation or set the timer to perform the specific validations like if you check the Deferred Validation check box while integrating the patch then it will just installs the patch but it won’t validate table or screens that are going to be affected by integrating the patch.
Unlike patch integration the deferred validation option is also available for Dictionary validation. At the bottom of Dictionary validation screen there are two buttons “Ok” and “Deferred”. When we click on Ok the validation will start immediately but if you click on deferred button it will pop up another window as shown in below screen shot and here it will allow you to set the Date and time when the validation should get started.
We can also check for the status of the suspended validations in Request Management screen [VALIDCO] as shown in below screen shot. To access the Request Management screen navigate through: Usage > Batch server > Request management.
