PR Timecard Entry parameter on daily hours input

We recently input a 100 hour day instead of a 10 hour day.  Although we caught it on timecard edit report, it would be nice if the software had a popup warning on anything that exceeds a 24 hour day to limit wasted time. [this particular error came from crew timecard entry].  I see where I can have a warning for the over 40 hour workweek, however our crews work 50 hour weeks and we do not want the warning to be quite that restrictive and slow down the input process that much.  If we could set the hours limit of the parameter, that would be fine as well.

    I confirmed that a minimum and/or maximun value can be set and enforced via F3 Field Properties on Hours in PR Timecard Entry.

    My payroll person will slap me if I test it myself, but if you're a form administrator you should be able to F3 on the Hours field in PR Entry, go to the System Overrides tab and set a Max value there. Not all forms/fields respect validations like this, but it's worth a shot.
