Exhibit

Refer to the exhibit.

The business rule has an empty script. What will happen when an incident state changes to 'Resolved'?

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

Nothing, because there is no script.

The business rule will fire because the condition (incident state changes to 'Resolved') is valid. However, since the script is empty, nothing happens. No default actions are executed. Option A is wrong because the condition is not invalid; it is valid. Option C is wrong because a script is not required for a business rule to fire. Option D is wrong because there are no default actions; the business rule only runs the script, which is empty.
