Validation Rules for opportunty stage

Hi

i m trying to create a validation rule that says if 4 fields are not filled, the user cannot mark stage as complete 
the formula is simple ( i took example on many answers here on this forum ) 

AND 
(
OR
(
ISPICKVAL(StageName, "Discovery Call"), 
BANT__c = FALSE, 
ISBLANK(DiscoveryCallMinutes__c), 
Goal_letter__c = FALSE, 
ISBLANK( Scheduled_next_meeting__c ) 
) 
)

this should mean that if the user is on the stage Discovery call (and only on this stage ) and all the fields:  scheduled next meeting - Goal letter - Dsicovery call minutes and BANT are not checked or filled , the stage cannot be marked as completed ..


but this formula doesn t work ... 

any advice ?

Try this:
AND(
ISPICKVAL(StageName, "Discovery Call"),
OR
 ( 
 BANT__c = FALSE, 
 ISBLANK(DiscoveryCallMinutes__c),  
 Goal_letter__c = FALSE, 
 ISBLANK( Scheduled_next_meeting__c ) 
 )
)

I must have done a mistake in the setup of the path cause it s still not working . 
i tested it and was able to mark the discovery call stage as completed without filling anything .. 

any idea what could i have done wrong ? i have no syntax error so the stage seems to be in place .

What I understnad now is, you are trying to change StageName from Discovery Call to Complete and you are expecting an error mesage..is that correct?

yes but only if the 4 fields mentionned are not checked or filled .
if one or 2 or 3 are missing i should have the error

Try this:
If stage is changed AND it is changed from Discovery call to Completed AND if one of the 4 fields is blank.. then give error

AND(
ISCHANGED(StageName),
ISPICKVAL(StageName, "Completed"),
PRIORVALUE(StageName)='Discovery Call',
OR
 ( 
 BANT__c = FALSE, 
 ISBLANK(DiscoveryCallMinutes__c),  
 Goal_letter__c = FALSE, 
 ISBLANK( Scheduled_next_meeting__c ) 
 )
)
