This validation rule checks whether an EXT employee is scheduled for more than two consecutive days.
Unlike other validation rules that are based on the employee’s Statute, this rule uses the Dimona type to determine applicability. The employee needs to have Dimona type EXT-hour or EXT-day.
🛠️ How to set up the rule
Click on Management in the main menu.
Go to Settings.
Click on Planning Validation Rules.
In the top right corner, click the green “Add” button.
Select the desired rule, in this case: "EXT Employees planned for more than 2 consecutive days".
