Character count in string fiel

Ram108 · ‎09-17-2023

I want to count number of characters entered in a string field.

Divide the total number of characters by 3.5 and store it in an Integer field.

I created a business rule in update/insert. I'm stuck on writing script.

Hey Mate,

One minor observation, you have multiplied by 3.5 while the question asked for Division

So the script changes to

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

	// Add your code here
	var noChars = current.string_field_name.length;
	var multipleVar = noChars / 3.5;
	gs.info("myBusinessRule: multipeVar = " + multipleVar);

})(current, previous);
