This fast formula determines whether the time attribute values are still valid for
the new assignment and time profiles. It calls an API to complete the
validation.
For any attribute values it finds that are invalid, it displays the specified warning
message. The message severity is defined as an output associated with the displayed
message. This formula uses an array to process time card data. It isn't associated with
any delivered time entry rule templates.
