Business Rule Not called in List View

[aaron47]

I have the following business rule:

updateDisplayName(current);

function updateDisplayName(current)
{
  gs.print("updateDisplayName - called");

  ...

}

The code works fine, but it only gets called in "form view".   It won't get called if I update a field in List View.

Details of business rule:

• When to run: before (insert, update)
• advanced tab >> condition: current.u_mobile_plans.changes() || current.asset_tag.changes() || current.location.changes() || current.model.changes() || current.operation() == 'insert'

So in LIST VIEW if I double click say on the "asset tag" field and change it, I was expecting the log to print out the debug text, but it has not.

Anyone with any ideas?

I can see others have asked a question like this in the community, but could not find any answered.

Can we create a onCellEdit() Client script with GlideAjax and based upon the return result let's populate the message,

Hello Shishir,

I thought the business rule is meant to always execute if I "Update" (as I have configured).

I shouldn't need to make a client script.

Ideally it should work, tried and tested working perfect in my instance

Yes, that's correct business rule is meant to always execute if there is an update and it will work in both ways (list and form), was just giving a thought if we can try to achieve that way as well.

Not sure if any other BR is conflicting, can you please increase the order of this BR and try.
