The validation rules are the the rules to ensure the internal data integrity in the process of data validation. Currently, the validation rules apply to operations, so it's the operation that can be valid, or not.

You can see the current validation rules.

There are currently four kinds of rules:

Mandatory rules 
Mandatory rule has to be matched for the operation to be valid.
Helper rules 
First, the operation is rejected, but if the center says that this information is correct, operation gets validated. It's used for example to check the extremely overweighted or underweighted patients.
Info rules 
User is notified about the violated rule, but operation gets validated.
Silent 
User doesn't see any information about the problem, but the operation doesn't get validated.
