EAMakeCreationDateAlwaysAfter

This document was generated using Claude.ai

Overview

Adjusts entity creation dates to ensure they always occur after a specified hour by adding random milliseconds while keeping the date within the same day.

When This Action Runs

Date/time enforcement during entity creation or when time-based business rule validation is needed.

How It Works

  1. Analyzes current creation time and compares hour with specified minimum
  2. Adds random milliseconds incrementally until time is after specified hour
  3. Maintains same-day constraint with end-of-day boundary protection
  4. Updates creation date with adjusted time ensuring business rule compliance
  5. Applies infinite loop protection for edge cases and performance

Parameters

Parameter 1: Hour (Required) - Minimum hour (0-23) after which creation time must occur (e.g., 9 for business hours, 13 for afternoon)

Database Tables Affected

  • Entity Creation Date Fields - Updates creation date field with adjusted time
  • Related Date Fields - May synchronize value date and document dates
  • Self-Contained Operation - Changes isolated to target entity only

Important Warnings

⚠️ Time and Date Integrity

  • Adjustments limited to same calendar day
  • Original creation time is permanently modified
  • May create artificial time progressions

⚠️ Business Logic Impact

  • May affect calculations dependent on creation time
  • Changed creation times may have audit implications
  • May impact integration with systems expecting original times

⚠️ Configuration

  • Hour parameter must be valid (0-23)
  • Ensure hour parameter aligns with business requirements
  • Consider time zone implications for hour settings
