Time card actions
ConceptintermediateThe four actions covered by validation and processing rules — Next, Save, Save and Close and Submit — and the consumer-set field that decides which of them trigger validation.
What people get wrong
The confusions are the difficulty. Each one is a belief that sounds right and is not.
- That every delivered validation starts by default. Absence validations do; project and payroll validations do not.
- That Save and Submit differ only in wording. Submit sets the status to Submitted and starts the approval workflow.
Recall it
Name the four time card actions validation and processing rules cover, and say which delivered validations start by default.
Next, Save, Save and Close and Submit. By default the delivered absence validations always start, while the delivered project and payroll validations do not.
Memory hook: Next, Save, Save and Close, Submit. Absence starts, project and payroll wait. Save records, Submit requests.
