ModelState Validation not working asp.net MVC-CodePudding

I'm new to asp.net MVC, I decided to build an ATM web APP without any database for learning purposes. I'm figuring out the MVC pattern, for the most part, I got it working but I need help with validating the entered withdrawal amount and displaying the correct error message if incorrect data is entered. Thanks.

Also, the logic where I check if the transactions the user has completed. ''' emp.TransactionBal <= 10 ''' but the condition keeps going down to 0, - 1, -2 and so on. But I want it to stop at 0. Thanks

        WithdrawRepository rep = new WithdrawRepository();

CodePudding user response：

try adding error when your if condition is failing. something like this.

    try
    {
                //Check if user have enough cash for withdraw
                //Check if the transaction is not more than 1000
                //Check if the user have not exceeded 10 transaction that day

                if (ModelState.IsValid && (emp.AccountBal - Input.WithdrawAmt) > 0)
                {
                    if (Input.WithdrawAmt <= 1000 && emp.TransactionBal <= 10)
                    {
                            emp.WithdrawId  ;
                            emp.TransactionBal--;
                            emp.AccountBal -= Input.WithdrawAmt;
                            rep.Add(emp);
                            return RedirectToAction("Index");
                    }
