Business Need

We have a number of constraints / validation rules that we need to enforce for dates.

Requirements

All detailed requirements have been translated into specifications - see below.

Technical Specification

Summary

List of constraints on dates:


User Interface

There is no UI here except some pop-up messages.

Functionality: Point in Time When Data is Tested against Constraints

Ideally this should happen real-time any time date is entered. But because of a glitch in a framework (or lack of our knowledge of workaround) we can only test it "on Save".


Functionality: Order Constraint Based On Chronological Order

"On save" check the following order. See #Chronological Order. 

no1 <= no2 <= no3 <= ...

If order is incorrect the show pop-up:

In CT#XXX, date <date name> can not be <earlier/later> than date <date name>" [OK].

Special case: CTs under Groups and Masters

In this case change to one date field can be applied to multiple CTs potentially breaking date constraints on multiple records.

In this case system must verify all related records and display error that spells out WHAT dates on WHAT records are breaking WHAT constraint.
