Hi,

Not working my BR script

After

Condition: current.work_notes.changes()

var updateInitiatedBy = updateInitiatedBy || current.sys_id.toString();
(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

// Add your code here

if(updateInitiatedBy == current.sys_id.toString()){
var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
gr.addQuery('problem_id',current.sys_id);
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
gr.work_notes = current.work_notes;
gr.update();
}
}

Or you can use the same Business Rule as for Incident Work notes -> simply specify a second variable:

 

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

// This Business Rule ensures that if there is a Parent Problem record, which has one or more Incidents records associated to it as Child Incidents or Problem Task(s) -> then, whenever the Work notes of the Problem get updated -> the Work notes of all Child Incidents & Problem Tasks will be updated accordingly with the same text;


// var rec = Child Incident(s);
var rec = new GlideRecord("incident");
rec.addQuery("problem_id", current.sys_id);
rec.addActiveQuery();
rec.query();
while (rec.next()) {

rec.work_notes = "Incident Work note copied from Parent Problem" + ':' + current.work_notes.getJournalEntry(1); // //Choose a text of your own, which suits you;
rec.update();
}


// var prtask = Child Problem Task(s);
var prtask = new GlideRecord("problem_task");
prtask.addQuery("problem", current.sys_id);
prtask.addActiveQuery();
prtask.query();
while (prtask.next()) {

prtask.work_notes = "Problem Task Work note copied from Parent Problem" + ':' + ' ' + current.work_notes.getJournalEntry(1);
prtask.update(); //Choose a text of your own, which suits you;
}

})(current, previous);

What is the purpose of the updateInitiatedBy variable? I feel that if you include the changes that Mike suggested, but omit that variable, and the if statement, that your script will run as intended. 

it is working but here we have small problem.

 One PROBLEM record had aroundly 5 incidents then work notes are copied into only One incident record.

So how can we solve it.

Script is correct can you validate with your if condition might be possible in if condition its only getting few incident not all 5.

How can we update 5 Incidents work notes ?

the above script will update that.. can you please validate with if condition.
