SNOW-CAD Integrating and managing application data Practice Question
A developer is creating a business rule that updates a field on the incident table whenever the state changes to 'Resolved'. The business rule should only run when the incident is updated via the form, not through web services. Which condition should be used?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
In the condition script, add '!gs.getUser().isWebService()'.
The condition should check if the update did not originate from a web service. The method 'gs.getUser().isWebService()' returns true if the current user is a web service user.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Set the business rule to run only on 'Submit'.
Why it's wrong here
Submit is not a valid option; 'When to run' has options like 'Before', 'After', 'Display'.
- ✗
Use the 'Filter Conditions' on the table to exclude web service users.
Why it's wrong here
Filter conditions are for the business rule to run on specific records, not based on the user type.
- ✓
In the condition script, add '!gs.getUser().isWebService()'.
Why this is correct
Correct: This prevents execution when the update comes from a web service.
- ✗
Set the 'When to run' to 'Update' and nothing else.
Why it's wrong here
This does not differentiate between form and web services.
