Events not triggering within a business rule

[matthew_hughes]

I've created the below business rule where I'm trying to generate two events. I'm wanting it to trigger when records within the 'x_lbg_group_recert_grp_recertification' get created on the current date:

My two events are:

The records are being created via a Scheduled Job. However what I'm finding that even though there are records that are being created today, it's not generating the two events:

So I was just wondering if anyone knows what I'm doing wrong so that I can generate the two events

@matthew_hughes You are checking "Created on Today"  , but in a "before insert in business rule " , the created field is still null(it hasn't been saved yet). 

so the condition created on today fails.

so you can use the script instead of filter condition something like this

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

   var today = new GlideDate();
   var createdDate = current.sys_created_on.getDate();

   if (createdDate == today.getDate()) {
       gs.log("Event 1 triggered for group manager: " + current.group_manager);
       gs.log("Event 2 triggered for line manager: " + current.line_manager);

       gs.eventQueue("lbg.group.recert.group.manager", current, current.group_manager, current.recertification_quarter);
       gs.eventQueue("lbg.group.recert.line.manager", current, current.line_manager, current.recertification_quarter);
   }

})(current, previous)

@matthew_hughes 

you are creating records via scheduled job

Is that BR initial logs coming?

Why not directly send email from Notifications using Inserted checkbox?

Why are you using Business rule?

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

@matthew_hughes ,

Created field is updated after the form is submitted, Therefore, you are checking before insert and Created on today would not work. Instead use Flow designer with "Record" created trigger and fire events as below:
