I have a entry code field i am trying a validation rule which says that it should contain only 7 numbers and adding user bypass and null check to it.But the formula is not working can any one suggest the fix.entry_code is a text(30) data type.

OR(AND($User.BypassValidation__c
NOT(ISNUMBER(entry_code__c)),
AND(ISNUMBER(entry_code__c)),
LEN(entry_code__c)<>7),(OR(entry_Code__c!="|| entry_Code__c!=NULL))

Hi Lincy,

Try the below anyone below formula.

AND( $User.BypassValidation__c = FALSE, 
(OR(LEN(entry_code__c) <> 7,
ISBLANK(entry_code__c))
)
)

===================

AND( $User.BypassValidation__c = FALSE, 
LEN(entry_code__c) <> 7,
)

Read the below two lines and decide whether we have to use TRUE or FALSE  in  $User.BypassValidation__c field check.

If the BypassValidation__c field is true then the bypass user should allow to save the record otherwise we have to throw the erroe means use $User.BypassValidation__c = FALSE in Formula

If the BypassValidation__c field is false then the bypass user should allow to save the record otherwise we have to throw the erroe means use $User.BypassValidation__c = TRUE in Formula
