Hi there,

I believe it is A UI Policy’s Scripts execute before the UI Policy’s Actions just like Sanjiv mentioned. I can't find any documentation on this on for example Docs. Though, if you would just test this in a PDI, then you would be able to confirm it is the correct answer.

Kind regards,
Mark

This is incorrect. 

As per the Scripting in ServiceNow Fundamentals eBook page 157 (Tokyo): "UI Policy Actions execute before UI Policy Scripts"

Yea, I just tested this myself and can confirm that the script portion of a UI policy run before the actions do.
