Symptom
There is an inconsistency in behaviour between PP3 and PPX for Rule to enforce new employment under Employment Settings configuration. When we configure the rule to raise an error message when Company is changed then
- PP3 raises the error message as soon as the company is changed i.e., onChange
- PPX raises the error message when clicking on submit at the end i.e., onSave
The behaviour should be consistent across PP3 and PPX.
