Prevent an admin from specific deletions in background script

[Anton42]

Hello,

is it possible to prevent background script deletion of only a specific table like sys_user for admin users?

So, for example:

We want to prevent, that users with admin role cannot execute deletion on the sys_user table.

Thank you in advance.

Use "Before" Business Rule 

1. Go to System Definition → Business Rules.
2. Click New.
3. Configure like this:

• Name: Prevent sys_user deletion for admins
• Table: sys_user
• Advanced: Checked
• When: Before
• Insert/Update: Unchecked
• Delete: Checked

1. Condition: (Optional) – Only for admin role users:

                         gs.hasRole('admin');

1. Script:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
    if (gs.hasRole('admin')) {
        gs.addErrorMessage("Admins are not allowed to delete users!");
        current.setAbortAction(true); // Prevent deletion
    }
})(current, previous);
