			A '''Validation Periods''' button is provided to allow addition of a validation life time for particular product types.

			When the button is pressed a new popup window will be displayed showing the details from the table above for the product currently selected.

			<center>[[Image:prd_validation.jpg\|600px]]</center>


			Four buttons are available:
			* '''Add''' – A new blank row will be created at the top of the data to allow a new row to be created. The Product and DU type columns will have a list of values containing the product type data for you to select from. The values entered in the cold, normal and hot columns relate to a time in hours e.g. 7.50 minutes e.g. 450 and should be validated as such.
			* '''Delete''' - will delete the currently selected record and an appropriate message should be displayed asking you to confirm the deletion.
			* '''Save''' - will commit any pending changes to the database.
			* '''Cancel''' - will back out any pending changes and close the popup screen.
