You can only pass one field name to the set_rules() method when doing it that way:

https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/form_validation.html#setting-validation-rules

However, you can pass an array:

https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/form_validation.html#setting-rules-using-an-array

So:

$config = array(
    array(
         'field' => 'agendaCode',
         'label' => 'Agenda Code',
         'rules' => 'callback_my_function'
    ),
    array(
         'field' => 'agendaNumber',
         'label' => 'Agenda Number',
         'rules' => 'callback_my_function'
    )
);

$this->form_validation->set_rules($config);

I mnot sure if you can validate two input in the same statement but i can see why you get an error

you need to change $this->form_validation->set_rules('agendaCode/agendaNumber','my_callback_function);

to

$this->form_validation->set_rules('agendaCode','callback_function); $this->form_validation->set_rules('agendaNumber','callback_function);

the corrent statement is callback_functionname it has to be callback not my_callback or anotherthing else
