Script include: ProminProcessConfigurationValidationUtilSNC During process configuration validation, the property sets the maximum dot-walk depth allowed in classification fields; exceeding it produces an error for the admin. The default is 3 levels if no value is set. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=55611b5a43bf0210a829bf5ff7b8f2b9
Script include: ProminProcessConfigUtil When a breakdown field uses dot-walking, the setting controls the maximum number of field levels allowed; fields exceeding it are rejected. The default limit is 3 levels. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=a1d943bb77a30210bf3589b28a5a9995
Script include: ProminUtils When an admin configures a breakdown field using dot-walking, the system checks its number of levels against this property and rejects fields that exceed the limit. The default limit is 3 levels. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=078d0838536500109e9eddeeff7b128b
Business rule: Validate process configuration The property is read while validating each classification field and sets the maximum dot-walk depth allowed. If a field exceeds that limit, admins see an error and the configuration is rejected; the default limit is 3. /sys_script.do?sys_id=fcea8397c36120104829e1018d40dd6a
