OTL Time Entry Rule Error
We are encountering an issue with OTL time entry rules on version 12.1.3. We have an existing rule on timecard entry such that if a specific list of 5 projects are entered, the
employee is required to enter a value in the activity field on that timecard line as well. The fast formula for this time entry rule compares attribute2 from the building block attribute info to a hardcoded list of flex_value_id's that correspond to the target cost center numbers and returns an error if the rule is broken. This has been working fine.
We recently went through a reorganization, so the hardcoded list of cost center flex_value_id's needed to change. I looked up each cost center on the System Administrator > Application > Validation > Values screen to pick up the flex_value_id, then replaced that list of IDs in the fast formula (it's actually in a pkg the fast formula calls).
