Switch Statement in Business Rule

[cc11]

I have a business rule :

Runes Before Insert & Update with no additional condition.

I have a field called eventmessage (Choice type) on the form (its referred to in the script below).

I select a dropdown value from eventmessage field and save the form.

On this uddate, I need the business to run and take appropriate action based on the value selected.

The switch statements in the script below do not execute. Looking for help..  

Script:

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

//gs.addInfoMessage(current.eventmessage);

switch (current.eventmessage) {

case AssignCase:

gs.addInfoMessage("server side script - AssignCase event executed");

break;

case CalculateInvoiceTotals:

gs.addInfoMessage("server side script - CalculateInvoiceTotals event executed");

break;

case Failed:

gs.addInfoMessage("server side script - Failed event executed");

break;

default:

gs.addInfoMessage("server side script - default event executed");

}

})(current, previous);

Is eventmessage a correct field name?

[Shishir Srivast]

Please have case values in quotes and try, like

case 'AssignCase'

case 'CalculateInvoiceTotals'

Hello Yogesh,

Please cross verify the event name. May be that was the issue.

Thank you Shishir, Karthik, I really appreciated your help.

Meanwhile, I was browsing the community posts and a suggestion from the post below worked for me..

Re: Switch case statement in a script

Here is what worked for me --

I created a variable before the Switch Statement

var x = current.eventmessage.toString();

Used the variable x in the Switch

Switch(x):{

Because the input parameter was converted to string, I added double quotes to the Case variables as follows

case "AssignCase"

Thank you again for your help,

Regards,

Yogesh
