SNOW-CAD Core Application Development Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are valid ways to create a Business Rule? (Choose two.)
⚠ Common exam trap
ServiceNow often tests the distinction between valid navigation paths and invalid shortcuts, such as assuming a right-click menu or a direct URL suffix works, when in fact only the module link or the 'New' button on the list view are correct.
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
✓
Navigate to 'System Definition > Business Rules' and click 'New'.
Navigating to 'System Definition > Business Rules' and clicking 'New' is the standard module-based method for creating a Business Rule in ServiceNow. This path directly accesses the Business Rule table (sys_script) and opens a new record form, which is a valid and documented approach.
