RecordMap Data Validation

I am trying to add some validation to an existing Record Map, because recently we had some wrong data get consumed into the System and is causing all kinds of havoc.

Using the AI on the Developer community it suggested that I use PATTERN within the Datatype Parameters to force some validation on some fields. I have never used PATTERN before...

When I go to generate the updated Record Map, I am getting the following...

By the screenshots is my logic not correct?

Product version: IRIS 2024.2
$ZV: HealthShare Provider Directory 2024.2.0 Build: 1009 [HealthShare Modules: Core:28.0 + Provider Directory:28.0] - IRIS for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86-64) 2024.1 (Build 267_2_24113U) Wed Jul 2 2025 16:36:55 EDT [Core:28.0|Provider Directory:28

I'm afraid it's not correct, for example the first item:

For ResearcherId the parretn 1N means "One Number", EXACTLY one number

I think the correct pattern should be .N, this means any number of Number (digits).

Supposing ResearcherId  is  mandatory and my contains only numbers (at least one), the the pattern would be 1.N

Last name would be 1.A, that is at least one low/upper case character
