How to bypass all mandatory fields while updating a field from a scheduled job

[pavankumar970]

Hi All,

   I need to update a field using scheduled job. While updating, if any mandatory fields are there then they need to bypass & record needs to be updated. 

 How to achieve this in scheduled jobs?

If you are just updating the fields, it's not validating any other mandatory fields on the record, except when you have data policies in place.

I already tried with Fix script, it is not updating the record

I tried it with a scheduled job and had no issues. Do you have data policies in place? Fields mandatory from ui policies and dictionary level were just ignored while updating non mandatory fields.
