Will Te Validation fire, when the data is loaded through data loader?  -- Yes 

f it is yes ,Then i need to bypass the validation , what i have to do when ever i am loading data through dataloade -- You can able to do it as below 

Create a new check box field on the user //ByPass_validation__c 

If this check is checked then dnt fire the validation else fire the validation 

You can set this flag to true for the users who is loading data though the data loader

Hi  Mohanakrishnan P ,

If you are not using the packaged object then you can just uncheck the Active checkbox for the validations rules present on that object before loading the data through the data loader. Once the data is loaded then you can again check the the Active checkbox.

But if its a packaged object then approach suggested by Raj should be taken.

Hope this helps !!!
