The seeded functionality allows blank timecards to be successfully submitted where the attributes (Project, Task and Expenditure Type) and also the hours are NULL.
To prevent a blank timecard from being submitted by users, you can implement a time entry rule using seeded fast formula 'Period Hours vs Time Category ( Seeded formula)'.
Steps for creating the time entry rule:
- Create a time entry rule with formula 'Period Hours vs Time Category ( Seeded formula )'. Formula Inputs:
Period: <user's timecard period>
Period Hours: 0
Operator: Equal To
Time Category: Project Processing Fields
- Create a time entry rule group which includes this time entry rule. Choose your desired outcome.
- Assign this time entry rule group to employees via OTL preference 'Time Store Time Entry Rules'
- Retest by trying to submit a blank timecard.
