Looking for OE or Rules Guru's!

I am trying to create an OE Order rule that prevents a procedure from being 
ordered based on the day of the week of the Service Date (i.e. not available 
for FRI, SAT, or SUN).  So far, I have been completely stymied.  

I do have a LIS Order rule that works wonderfully - if the procedure is 
initiated from within the Laboratory Module.  
The LIS Order Rule I am using is:
        "Due to very short Specimen Stability, "^WHY,
        [f lord mnemonic]^NAME,
        " May Not Be Ordered On "^NOT,
        [f lord col day]_"'s."^DAY,
        WHY_NAME_NOT_DAY^MSG,
        IF{[f lord col day]="SUN" [f lord reject],[f lord err msg](MSG);
        [f lord col day]="SAT" [f lord reject],[f lord err msg](MSG);
        [f lord col day]="FRI" [f lord reject],[f lord err msg](MSG);
        [f lord ok]};
However, orders initiated from Order Entry seem to be crashing the OE-LAB 
interface.  I am being told, if there is a order rule in LAB that rejects an 
order, there should be an analogous rule in OE to do the same.  However, I am 
not seeing any keywords available referencing the Day of the Week for the 
Service Date in the Order Entry Rules dictionary.  

Any ideas how to make this worK?  All ideas are more than welcome!
