• CES-5584: Bypass LPC Validations for Steel (LPC Code 01).

Until requirements are finalized for steel LPC validations, we want to bypass the validations. Presently the validation is returning an “I” (Informational) message. This change will bypass the validations altogether so no message will be returned.
