Posted on 2012-03-19
Hello experts,

The best method is to perform the business-validations in the BAL.
It is never wrong to perform also some validations (like required fields, numeric fields, ...) in the GUI.

Validation at the presentation layer makes for a better user experience.
Validation at the 'lower' levels is important because the presentation layer may not be what is modifying the data. Maybe it's a bulk import program or maybe it's SQL Studio that is modifying the data.
The most important validation is at the database level. Because if invalid data gets in the system, all hope is lost. And maybe someone's job!

They should really be in both shouldn't they?
Totally agree about the user experience. In my own 3-tier app I validate in the form to ensure that dates/blank fields etc are all recognised immediately. Then I have further validation in the BAL to ensure that database logic is being followed. Some of this happens in stored procedures, others in the BAL layer itself.
