Automatic Update Integer Field when send a Email

[luizmarcond]

Hey guys!

Basically I need there to be a Business Rule so that when I send an email from a certain table, the increment field in that table counts +1, thus updating the subject of the email.

I already have the increment fields etc, I'm having difficulty writing the code. 

How could I write this code, can anyone help me?

Can you elaborate more, like when you want to increase the record count whenever an email is sent on the record?

Sorry, I think I wasn't very clear in my questioning.

I need that, every time I send an email related to a certain table (most likely we would have to reference some field from sys_email, such as 'target table'), the increment field of that table is incremented, so I can update the subject of the email as I send the emails, for example, Subject: Update 1, Update 2, etc.

Currently I have an email template and the increment field in the desired table, I'm just having difficulty writing this in a BR.

Hello @luizmarcond Maybe I haven't understood the question completely however as per my understanding, here is what I have done:

Created a dummy table 

Created a Before Business Rule

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

	// Add your code here
current.u_increment = current.u_increment + 1;

})(current, previous);

Created a dummy e-mail notification

So, whenever a new record is created in the dummy table form as shown below, the increment field's value increments to + 1

Before record creation:

After Record Submission/creation:

E-mail sent:
