Job Salary Fields
Note the following validation:
job_pay_type_id is not submitted (pre 23 Feb 2017 API Integration/ Upgrade)
this presumes you are submitting just field job_salary which is required
job_pay_type_id is not submitted or not of value '1', '2' or 5' (post 23 Feb 2017 API Integration/ Upgrade)
If job_salary_from or job_salary_to or job_salary is submitted then it will error as a valid job_pay_type_id is required
If job_pay_type_id is '5' (Non Specific Salary)
job_salary is required
job_salary_from - should not be submitted (will error if submitted)
job_salary_to - should not be provided (will error if submitted)
If job_pay_type_id is '1' (per annum) or '2' (per hour)
job_salary_from - should be submitted
job_salary_to - should be submitted (if the same value as job_salary_to then still needs to be submitted)
