3455641 - "Consider only allowances that have changed" in the Amendment Scenario parameter of Get Number of Allowances In Period() and Has Allowances In Period() wrongly retrieves allowances when generating amendment time sheet

Together with the Monthly Time Sheet released with 1H 2024, a new option of "Consider only allowances that have changed" is introduced in the Amendment Scenario parameter of Get Number of Allowances In Period() and Has Allowances In Period(). More details can be found in What's New Viewer Enhancement of the Rule Functions Get Number of Allowances In Period and Has Allowances In Period

Currently the "Consider only allowances that have changed" will count the approved allowance recordings when system generates a new amendment monthly time sheet. 

For example, there is already an approved monthly time sheet with 2 allowance recordings. And you are to add a 3rd allowance to this approved monthly time sheet. This action will generate an amendment monthly time sheet. When the amendment time sheet is saved with the new allowance recording added, the Get Number of Allowances In Period() and Has Allowances In Period() functions with "Consider only allowances that have changed" set in the Amendment Scenario parameter will also consider the 2 approved allowance recordings together with the 1 newly added allowance recording. 

This symptom does not happen with original monthly time sheet, or amendment monthly time sheet if the amendment monthly time sheet has already been saved to DB before.
