In this example, the SetChoice business rule is used to update the status of an attribute.
The Requirements module contains a Choice attribute named “Status”, which contains the items New, Started, Commented, Delayed, Finished, and Not Approved. The same module contains a Text attribute named “Comments”, in which users can add comments about the requirement.
With the SetChoice business rule, you can update the Status attribute to “Commented” whenever a comment is added in the Comments attribute.
1 Note the ID numbers of the Status attribute and the Commented item. In this example, the ID numbers are 308 and 14.
2 Make sure that the Requirements module contains a Text attribute that is the business rules container attribute. In the business rules container attribute, enter:
=SetChoice("308","14","true",'Comment')
When a comment is added to a requirement, the SetChoice business rule updates the status to “Commented”.
