Have you actually tried this out yourself, Madhvi? Also, in case this is not working, can you share your solution with everybody as well please, if it's different from what Prachi suggested? Also, please do post the Metalink which says this. Guess it would help everybody out there. hmmm.. seems to be strange. Have you actually tried this out yourself, Madhvi?

When you create a new record in Accounts and do not associate Contact with Account, you will receive a pop up message saying Contact is a required Field.You associate Contact with Account and save the record.Now go on Contact field and remove the Contact you associated with Account.Save the record.You will not receive any pop up message.Strange is n't it! I searched for this problem in support web and found this to be a product defect. The only way left is to do scripting on BC Pre Write record function to achieve the desired result.
