2704776 - Validation Error for Future Dated Changes

2. Navigate to My Profile > Update a data (e.g. data change the location from Job Information portlet and choose a future date)

2. Terminate the Employee. When selecting the date, a validation message appears (see below), but when the Termination Reason is also selected, the validation doesn't work.
Also, validation rule still triggers even when terminating employees without future dated changes.
