Need Scripting Help on Condition to Run Biz Rule

[mrcorbeaux]

Hello Developers,

There is an OOB Business Rule that is part of the Procurement Plug-In called: Can request be sourced.
It runs on the sc_request table to make an REQ sourceable.
It looks at the variable 'cat_item' on the sc_req_item table to see if it has a model. If so, it sets the 'sourceable' variable on the REQ to True.

Is there a way to have this Biz Rule run only if the cat_item sys_ID is NOT 'c344cd6487ee051015aafe29cebb3590' ? That sys_id has and needs a model but I don't want the rule to run on that one.
I cannot use the When To Run condition because 'cat_item' is on the sc_req_item table. 

Ultimately I want to use that OOB Biz Rule to not run on that sys_id and create a similar one with additional code that will run ONLY if cat_item sys_ID IS c344cd6487ee051015aafe29cebb3590.

Thank you.

sourceable(current);

function sourceable(record) {
  var C_STOCK_ORDER_CAT_SYS_ID = '4109aa5fdb22001015a8ffefbf961984';
  var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
  gr.addQuery("request", record.sys_id);
  //A OR (B AND C) not supported
	//Hence going for (A OR B) AND (A OR C)
	var qc = gr.addNotNullQuery("cat_item.model");
	if (GlidePluginManager.isActive('com.sn_hamp')) {
		qc.addOrCondition("cat_item.sys_id", C_STOCK_ORDER_CAT_SYS_ID);
		qc.addOrCondition('variables.dbccd3f2b7621010189e22b5de11a90e', '!=', '');//expecting this catalog item only if HAMP is active, hence not checking if HAMP active or not
		// need to enhance code
		var qc1 = gr.addNotNullQuery("cat_item.model");
		qc1.addOrCondition("variables.6189629fdb22001015a8ffefbf96197f", "!=", "");//Checking if model variable is not null
		qc1.addOrCondition('variables.dbccd3f2b7621010189e22b5de11a90e', '!=', '');
	}
	gr.setLimit(1);
	gr.query();
	if (gr.hasNext()) {
    // DEF0275710 - Re-querying and updating the request record to avoid extra record in audit
		var request = new GlideRecord("sc_request");
		request.addQuery("sys_id", record.sys_id);
		request.query();
		if(request.next()){
			request.sourceable = true;
			request.update();
		}
	}

Hi @mrcorbeaux 

Try this:

var ritm = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
ritm.addQuery("request", current.sys_id);
ritm.query();
if(ritm.next()){
     if(ritm.cat_item != 'c344cd6487ee051015aafe29cebb3590'){
           sourceable(current);
     }
}


function sourceable(record) {
  var C_STOCK_ORDER_CAT_SYS_ID = '4109aa5fdb22001015a8ffefbf961984';
  var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
  gr.addQuery("request", record.sys_id);
  //A OR (B AND C) not supported
	//Hence going for (A OR B) AND (A OR C)
	var qc = gr.addNotNullQuery("cat_item.model");
	if (GlidePluginManager.isActive('com.sn_hamp')) {
		qc.addOrCondition("cat_item.sys_id", C_STOCK_ORDER_CAT_SYS_ID);
		qc.addOrCondition('variables.dbccd3f2b7621010189e22b5de11a90e', '!=', '');//expecting this catalog item only if HAMP is active, hence not checking if HAMP active or not
		// need to enhance code
		var qc1 = gr.addNotNullQuery("cat_item.model");
		qc1.addOrCondition("variables.6189629fdb22001015a8ffefbf96197f", "!=", "");//Checking if model variable is not null
		qc1.addOrCondition('variables.dbccd3f2b7621010189e22b5de11a90e', '!=', '');
	}
	gr.setLimit(1);
	gr.query();
	if (gr.hasNext()) {
    // DEF0275710 - Re-querying and updating the request record to avoid extra record in audit
		var request = new GlideRecord("sc_request");
		request.addQuery("sys_id", record.sys_id);
		request.query();
		if(request.next()){
			request.sourceable = true;
			request.update();
		}
	}
}

Thanks!

Hello Shubham,

That actually still launched the biz rule when that sys_id was ordered. But thanks for responding.

@Community Alums , your approach is good but the gap is when "sourceable" called then it's including that cat_item.

Hi @mrcorbeaux ,

You can update the BR with addQuery condition and filter out  the said cat item for further processing.

var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
  gr.addQuery("request", record.sys_id);
  gr.addQuery('cat_item!=c344cd6487ee051015aafe29cebb3590');

-Thanks,
