Information in this document applies to any platform.Symptoms

 An item has a validation of "Column Is NOT Zero" (or "Column Is NOT NULL or Zero). This works fine when entering a value of 0 in the field and trying to apply the changes, the following error is shown to the end user

      "<COL> Must Have A Value & Cannot Be ZERO"

However, if the end user enters values of 00, 000, 0000. That is a series of zeros, then on applying the changes the value is accepted and thus managing to enter erroneous values of zero. Do note, the series of zeros are shown as a single zero when the page is reloaded.
