To create metric definition on field type "updated By"

[eumak]

I am working on making a metric defination on field type "updated By" . According to below article it says "sys_updated_by aren’t monitored for metric calculations"  I created a BR as the steps but still at zero.

https://tilnow.co/metrics/2015/05/30/metric-for-updated-by/

Can someone guide me on how i can get the metric instance records created for my definitions for updated_by field? If someone has implemented it would love to see script of BR / & definition.

Thanks

Hi @eumak ,

You can create a metric definition like below

createMetric(current.sys_updated_by.toString());

function createMetric(value) {
	var mi = new MetricInstance(definition, current);
	var gr = mi.getNewRecord();
	gr.field_value = value;
	gr.calculation_complete = true;
	gr.insert();
}

Then you can a Business rule like below 

Add below code in advanced tab of BR

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

	gs.eventQueue('metric.update', current, '[sys_updated_by]', 1, 'metric_update');

})(current, previous);

This should get metric instances created for sys_updated_by field. I got the below results

Please mark answer as helpful and correct if it resolves the issue

Thanks !!!
