Restrict the update by Discovery for a CI's field based on certain condition

[WA1]

Hello, 

When a record is updated or inserted in the Software table by Discovery, I need to prevent the update of a specific field based on a certain condition on its value. 

I think that by creating a reconciliation rule on the table of software, I can only prevent the update of that specific attribute all the time without having the possibility to update it on a certain condition, do you confirm this? 

So I thought about creating a Business rule on before that will be executed when a software record is inserted or updated by the MID Server user and that will prevent the update of that specific field based on a condition.

What is the best option for this need please? 

Thank you in advance

Hi , 

Reconciliation rule will help you with which discovery sources can update CI attributes.

Hello,

As I said reconciliation rules give the possibility to select only the fields that we want to update by a discovery source but I think that we can't decide to update a specific field based on a condition on its new value that's the problem..
