Reproducing the Issue

This example is based on the Business Rule above:

  1. Login to your system > Navigate to My Employee File
  2. Go to the Time Portlet > Administer Time
  3. Edit an approved Time Type (e.g. Leave Of Absence time type where you change the Actual Return Date which will trigger the Return From Leave event reason) > Submit
  4. Sync would then be triggered in the Job Information portlet post editting the Time Type via Time Portlet
  5. Check the Employment Details portlet, First Date Worked field did not update, therefore, cross-portlet rule did not work

Resolution

The system does not support onSave Cross-Portlet rule being triggered through Time Off.
