Using button from report overriding form rules

I set up a button to Submit a New Space Request that changes the Request Status field to "Submitted" and checks the a checkbox to "Certify" the request is ready to submit. This button was made to put on a report that goes on the user Homepage so that if they have done everything on the request besides certify and submit it, they could do so from the homepage instead of having to go into the record. I have dynamic form rules in place that when the checkbox to "Certify" the request is checked, it also turns on the requirements for several fields to be filled before they can submit. However, the button I created is allowing the user to certify and submit the request without those required fields being filled in. Is there a better way to set this up? Perhaps the submit button on the report isn't available unless the required fields are filled in?
