Earliest Change Date Message

If you receive an Earliest Change Date message, click OK.

Earliest Change Date is too far back to run Rules in viewed period. Limit is 12 months. The system is configured to protect against extreme long response times when you submit time. In order to get around this limitation you may bring up an earlier timesheet and work your way forward to the present, or you should request your Manager or the Time Administrator to run the Request Time Administration process to bring your Earliest Change Date forward to present time.
