This document discusses two methods for validating element entries in an Oracle HRMS system: 1) Using input parameters to define minimum and maximum allowed values for an element, and displaying a warning or error if those limits are exceeded. 2) Using a fast formula to check if an element's value is within a specified range, and returning an error status and message if not. It provides steps to configure both methods and test the validation. The document was created for classroom training purposes to explain how to set up element entry validation in an Oracle HRMS system.

4. Step 2: Link this element to the payroll and Assign to the Employee and check it
Method 2: Using Fast Formula
Step 1: Creating Fast Formula
Navigation Path: Total CompensationBasicWrite Formula
Fast formula for the Element: Test_Element_VD2 _FF
Inputs are Entry_Value (text)
Net_Value= To_Num (Entry_value)
If Net_Value<=1000 or Entry_Value was defaulted then
(
Formula_Status = 'E'
Formula_Message='Net Payment Amount cannot be <=1000 or a Negative value'
)
Else If Net_Value >=2000 then
(
Formula_Status= 'E'
Formula_Message='Net Payment Amount >=2000 or a Negative value'
)
Else
(
Formula_Status= 'N'
Formula_Message= 'Net Payment Amount ACCEPTED'
)
Return Formula_Status,Formula_Message
