1. One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed, cause a processor to:
determine an uplink/downlink (UL/DL) slot configuration for communication with a base station;
determine a MsgA physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion (PO) is associated with a flexible symbol based at least on the UL/DL slot configuration;
identify a first PO validation rule associated with a radio resource control (RRC) connected state, wherein the first PO validation rule is to indicate that MsgA POs on flexible symbols that are not indicated for DL are valid;
identify a second PO validation rule associated with an RRC idle/inactive state, wherein the second PO validation rule is to indicate that all MsgA POs on flexible symbols are not valid;
select, as a validation rule, the first PO validation rule or the second PO validation rule based at least on whether the processor is associated with the RRC connected state or the RRC idle/inactive state; and
determine whether the MsgA PO is valid based at least on the validation rule.
