EAMakeCreationDateAlwaysBetween
This document was generated using Claude.ai
Overview
Adjusts document creation dates to ensure they fall within a specified time window by synchronizing with value date and adding/subtracting random milliseconds until time is between start and end hours.
When This Action Runs
Time window enforcement for DocumentFile entities requiring creation time constraints within specific business operation hours.
How It Works
- Validates document value date and synchronizes creation date with it
- Analyzes current hour against target window boundaries
- Determines adjustment direction (forward or backward) to reach target window
- Applies random milliseconds bidirectionally until time falls within specified hours
- Updates creation date with window-compliant time and infinite loop protection
Parameters
Parameter 1: Ignore (Not Used) - This parameter is not used
Parameter 2: Start Hour (Required) - Starting hour (0-23) of time window, inclusive (e.g., 9 for 9 AM)
Parameter 3: End Hour (Required) - Ending hour (0-23) of time window, exclusive (e.g., 17 for 5 PM)
Note: Start hour must be less than end hour and different from end hour
Database Tables Affected
- DocumentFile Creation Date - Updates creation date field with time adjusted to target window
- Document Date Fields - Synchronizes related date fields for consistency
- Self-Contained Operation - Changes isolated to target document only
