How to use current.setValue for string field in business rule

[Roshini]

I am using a after business rule to set one field value code is . Field type is Choice and name is u_use_method. I need to set this field to local based on few conditions. Am trying to use current.setValue('u_use_method', local), where local is the backend value of the choice field. But this is not working. Any suggestions please

Hi @Roshini please use before update BR and the code below.

current.setValue('u_use_method', 'local'); // you missed ''(codes)

Hi @Roshini, try setting the value 'local' with quotes in the script method.

Hi @Roshini ,

It looks like you're running this on when = after, which you can't use to set values. 

You should make the BR before and then as already suggested by other colleague run the setvalue statement.

Please mark helpful/correct if my response helped you.

Hello @Roshini ,

Please try below code

current.setValue('u_use_method', 'local');

current.setWorkflow(false)

current.update();
