Thanks a lot Quinton for your suggestion. Could you give me some more advise
please as neither the intake-howto nor the intake-service doc refer to the
validator-attribute.

So I just add the validator-attribute to the field-element like this
<group key="kundendaten" name="KundendatenGroup" mapToObject="om.Kunde">
...
<field name="Ort" key="f" type="String" mapToObject="om.Kunde"
mapToProperty="Ort" validator="ortval"/>
and don't add any rule-element, right?

I can follow you so far:
(in action-method)
IntakeTool intake = (IntakeTool)context.get("intake");
Group group = intake.get("KundendatenGroup","kundendaten");
Field ort = group.get("Ort");
Validator val = ort.getValidator();
Now what do I do with the validator to validate the field?
And where do I put the code for the actual validation?
