The validation setup:

  • Must be enabled or disabled for the entire company through the Validation parameter setup in the Project management and accounting parameters form.

  • Allows for individual workers to be exempt from validation through settings in the Project setup form.

  • Is applied throughout Microsoft Dynamics AX, such as when entries are registered in hours, cost and inventory journals; in timesheets and expense reports; and so on.
