• Before b1911 release, there existed no validation to check if the start date entered in the function is on or before the end date entered in the function, which lead to unexpected results as the rule function was not designed to be called with a wrong order.
• Hence Engineering enhanced the behavior by adding a data validation message.

• The function will throw a validation error when start date > end date during rule execution.
• The existing rules will need to be modified to accomodate this validation, if there is a possibility of rule function having start date > end date. E.g. Before using the function in a set statement, please add an if condition to check if start date to be entered in the function is on or before the end date. Example Screenshot:
