[Ashwini Jadhao]

Hi,

How to fire Business Rule in UI action to create child tables record. After clicking the Ui action The state changes properly but I am not able to fire the BR to Create child tables records.

Once the records get created The another ui action should be visible.

Thank you.

Hi,

On which form/table, you are creating the UI Action? Are they in the same scope? If not, there might be some scope issue as well?

Try with below code once:

function onClick()
{
 
 if(g_form.getValue('state') != 'add')
 {
 g_form.setValue('state',"add");
 //alert('state changes to add');
 }

 gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'createadd');

                          // Make sure "createadd" is the UI Action Name

}

if (typeof window == 'undefined')
 serverAdd();


function serverAdd()
{
 current.state = 'add'; 

 var disc = new GlideRecord('x_256866_outlier_r_add');
 disc.evaluation=current.number;
 disc.state ='new';
 disc.property=current.property; 
 disc.update();

 current.update();
 
 }

Mark Correct/Helpful, if this helps you.

Fundamentally this question has went in other way and the code too..

If you want to fire a Business rule the primary point to check is the Trigger - When?? & Operation? & Condition? (Eg: Before Insert- some x condition)

Your UI action code can be written in just two lines without toggling from client to server.

if(currrent.state != 'discuss'){

current.state = 'discuss';

current.update();//here as you are invoking a UPDATE operation obviously Update Business Rules defined on that table will run.

}

You are using the code which is useful in case if somebody want to have some client side control before handovering to server.

After seeing your code I felt it is not required.

The business rule should be Before/After Update with the condition "state CHANGES TO discuss" and you can write the code to insert the child table entries in this BR.
