Global Absence Entry Validation: How to Retrieve Duration Per Date for a Multi-Day Absence Request?

Hi Experts,

I'm looking for a database item (DBI), context, or array variable available in a Global Absence Entry Validation Fast Formula that can retrieve the duration for each individual date of a multiple-date absence request.

Example:

  • 01-Nov-2026 = 8 Hrs
  • 02-Nov-2026 = 4.5 Hrs
  • 03-Nov-2026 = 9 Hrs

Total Duration = 2.5 Days

While the total duration is available (IV_TOTALDURATION), my requirement is to validate each day separately within the Entry Validation formula - Making sure that employees file whole day (8Hrs/9hrs depending on the assigned shift) or halfday only (4Hrs/4.5hrs)

Has anyone identified a DBI, array DBI, or context that exposes the daily duration values for multi-day absence entries?

Howdy, Stranger!
