How to Prevent Submission of Ineligible Absence Requests

I have worked at a number of PeopleSoft, Global Payroll sites that customized the Self Service Component/s to prevent Employees and/or Managers from submitting an Ineligible Absence Request.  Here’s how to present an Error if an Ineligible Absence Request is submitted via Self Service, without customization:
Use the “Maintain Text Catalog” Component to create an Error Message:

Set Up HCM > Common Definitions > Text Catalog... > Maintain Text Catalog

You will also need a message for “Eligible” Requests:

Configure the “Country Take” Component with your new messages, as follows:

Set Up HCM > Product Related > Global Payroll... > Absence Management > Country Take
