Hello Sage, Most likely the errors you are still seeing are coming from when Rollup Helper is processing asynchronously, there is a separate custom setting used to apply validation helper in this context. You can find more information on this here: https://passagetechnology.force.com/KnowledgeBase/s/article/Validation-Helper-to-prevent-field-custom-validation-exceptions-1578080053750

Sure Jacob. I have emailed, w.r.t the confusion. We use the Rollup Helper package and need to disable all validation rules during these calculations. Why isn't just turning off the "Run Validation Rule" option for each rollup enough? What are the risks (accidental re-enablement, inconsistent behavior)? Does it work for all Rollup Helper runs (scheduled, triggered)? I did go through the documentation but am not sure why we need to take the custom setting route and update all validation rules. Please advise. Please review the conversation here . This stands as a priority for us.

We still are getting many validation rule errors that are "breaking' our rollups. Are there any next steps that I can take?
