WFM_COMPARE_WRKR_SCHEDULE_TO_REPORTED_HOURS Fast Formula
This fast formula is associated with the delivered rule template Compare Schedule to Reported Hours Template. It compares the total reported time for the day or period with either the published workforce management schedule or the HR employment schedule.
The formula first checks whether the published schedule exists in the time repository. If the published schedule doesn't exist, the formula compares the reported hours with the HR employment schedule using a PL/SQL availability API. If the total reported hours aren't within the scheduled hours plus or minus the defined variance, the defined message appears. If no message is defined, the default message appears. The message severity is an output value associated with the displayed message.
