How to test a future date expense?

[saumyagupta]

I need to setup VAT rate changes valid from a future date, I have made the changes in test environment, how can I test those changes in test as exception is raised that future date is not allowed?

@saumyagupta the future date not allowed is an audit rule. So, you have a couple of options:

1. Add a condition to the audit rule that excludes test users. That way with a test user profile, you can use a future date and the system will not block it. 

2. Deactivate the Future Date audit rule while you are testing. 

I would probably highly recommend option 1 as my guess is that the future date audit rule will be used by your company. 

Do you have experience with Audit Rules and adding conditions to them?
