Why each option
Validation rules are used to enforce data integrity by preventing invalid data entry when records are created or updated, including during imports, web-to-lead submissions, and manual edits.
Validation rules are executed when records are imported via data import tools, ensuring data quality even during bulk data loading.
Validation rules typically do not fire when records are updated by workflow rules or other automation processes, as these processes are generally trusted to create valid data; however, this behavior can vary slightly with specific automation types and versions.
Validation rules are designed to prevent invalid data *creation or update*, not record deletion; deleting a record does not involve validating data fields.
Records submitted through Web-to-Lead forms trigger validation rules, preventing submission of incomplete or incorrect lead information.
When a user manually edits and saves a record, validation rules are fired to ensure that the updated data meets the defined criteria before the record is committed.
