UNIVERSAL VALIDATION RULES

Finding common errors shouldn't be this difficult.

Apply rules for required values, whitespaces, duplicates, and other common data problems.

REQUIRED

No missing values

Flag blanks where downstream systems require a value.

WHITESPACE

Clean boundaries

Find leading or trailing whitespace that can break matching and imports.

UNIQUENESS

No duplicates

Detect repeated values within a column when uniqueness matters.

ALLOWED VALUES

Explicit domains

Limit values to an approved list your target system accepts.

CASE SENSITIVITY

Match values exactly

Choose whether validation should treat uppercase and lowercase values as different.

BUILT TO GROW

More ways to validate

We're continuously adding new validation rules to give you more ways to check your data.

BEYOND THE CHECK

Fix and reshape without leaving Brutus.

Fix errors on screen, reshape the sheet, and download your corrected file.

Fix on screen

Accept a suggestion, type a new value, or fix every match at once.
