ConfiForms - Validate chosen datetime

Hi @Gordon Priebe 

I will approach this with 2 Field Definition Rules, both set to "Validation rule" action

One will be with a "condition" parameter set to

date:<[date20251208 8:00] OR date:>[date20251212 17:00]

second

date.convertDate(HH):<9 OR date.convertDate(HH):>17 OR date.convertDate(HH):12

Example configuration in a page storage format for the reference and easy import

<ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="f1a555a7-7518-43d9-85fa-a990dbe18d20" ac:macro-id="3f5407e0f177dff5c321375b268244b44b2a0aa0c67bed5143adaabe1a8121f5"><ac:parameter ac:name="formName">form</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field-definition" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="92bba700-bd29-4696-adfc-741c2e2143bf" ac:macro-id="61da1036-d34b-4c3a-8dab-511a945fa5d5"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">field1</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldLabel">field1</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="type">text</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="required">true</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">44044919</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field-definition" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="8c784420-5212-4050-bc6e-cb48de236263" ac:macro-id="b4313b63-9dc7-4460-87e4-10d344934e2d"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldLabel">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="type">datetime</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">-1421435954</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field-definition-rules" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="a4824e78-22da-48fc-9a46-7b066725b87c" ac:macro-id="51841389-bfb8-4c37-83af-d4517e90bdaf"><ac:parameter ac:name="condition">date:&lt;[date20251208 8:00] OR date:&gt;[date20251212 17:00]</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">Only timeslots from e.g. the 8. to the 12. of December in the time from 9 -12 am and 1 - 5 pm should be valid choices.</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="action">Validation rule</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="actionFieldName">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">2037468653</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field-definition-rules" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="efbfea1e-932e-444c-b3bb-8079ac0c65f2" ac:macro-id="f71526e4-797f-4f70-a6db-df606994e8b0"><ac:parameter ac:name="condition">date.convertDate(HH):&lt;9 OR date.convertDate(HH):&gt;17 OR date.convertDate(HH):12</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">Only timeslots from e.g. the 8. to the 12. of December in the time from 9 -12 am and 1 - 5 pm should be valid choices.</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="action">Validation rule</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="actionFieldName">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">-2036394417</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro></ac:rich-text-body></ac:structured-macro><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-entry-register" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="d811ee38-17ea-470f-82f7-d8a29664a769" ac:macro-id="5526087a4d81b811450abcabbe46d4a7e069cbbf2817668f20a819ca3c467107"><ac:parameter ac:name="redirectMode">View</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="formName">form</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="showMessageAs">Below the form</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body><p /></ac:rich-text-body></ac:structured-macro><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-table" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="6a53e7e6-2c03-43af-ac98-1087d5af194a" ac:macro-id="78988eb997976af0683255fb5dddb3e515b8990d33265bb4c6fcf90bd7f578f3"><ac:parameter ac:name="formName">form</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body><p><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="a9e76305-344b-47b7-b73e-324d1150414a" ac:macro-id="c986f7cb-313a-42e4-9953-205ad33b3e76"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">field1</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">-878774306</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro></p><p><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field" ac:schema-version="1" ac:local-id="215bde42-7cc0-4a1c-bab3-bf5dfe8f8d5f" ac:macro-id="9f24f2db-8475-42d8-83de-8da2d75dd21d"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="title">date</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">607359967</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro></p><p><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field" ac:schema-version="1" ac:local-id="8862042c-6e66-45ee-874f-7713e4d33ba3" ac:macro-id="4d657295-4dce-4eff-844e-3c7e40f2b3b2"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">date.formatDate(HH)</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="title">date.formatDate(HH)</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">-1935904879</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro></p><p><ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform-field" ac:schema-version="1" ac:local-id="49d52dfa-1dfc-4c2f-aa0f-c00900f894a1" ac:macro-id="e079b8e2-a318-4e13-a607-dd11a34e6133"><ac:parameter ac:name="fieldName">date.convertDate(HH)</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="title">date.convertDate(HH)</ac:parameter><ac:parameter ac:name="macroHash">1895092575</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro></p></ac:rich-text-body></ac:structured-macro>
