Problem Note 57197: SAS® Financial Management data validation rules run incorrectly
 |  |  |  |  |
SAS Financial Management data validation rules might run incorrectly if you are running the data validation rules on a data-entry form that includes a shared slicer with another table in the workbook. If this problem occurs, the rule runs, but it reports success even if there is a value that should fail the data validation rule.
You can confirm that you are encountering this issue by reviewing the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office (AMO) log. In this case, the following error is generated:
10-13 12:19:51,417 ERROR
