Hello Sonia,
If there is OrderEntry or Invoices data present in the dataset, the Salesperson field is required to be a valid, non blank, salesperson.
If field validation is on, you cannot leave the field without a valid entry. If an invalid code is entered, the program will warn you and then revert back to the code that had previously been saved.
If field validation is not on in options, you can leave the field but you cannot save the record without a valid Salesperson code.
