Hi,
I need help with a solution: When an incident is on hold and the user changes its state, it should only be able to change to "In Progress." The user shouldn't have the option to resolve or close the incident directly; it must revert to "In Progress" first.
Regards
CarolMa

@Ankur Bawiskar if I disable the business rule the on-hold state works as expected as soon as I make it active to enforce the rule it's a mess. checked system logs to see what scripts ran on the incident, checked custom updates, and other business rule nothing changed.

Are you saying when you activate this business rule then all records get updated?
try creating a fresh business rule.
