We have a small problem and are interested in the best (correct) way to solve it.
We have two attributes that depend on each other, that is having one without the other makes no sense.
There for we have a rule that checks if attribute A has a value and B not and vice versa.
Now the problem, somtimes the user wants to clear BOTH attributes and we are trying to make a process that does this but it gets stuck because of our rules. Ones attribute A is touched the rule fires and it is impossible to clear the attributes.
We managed a workaround but wonder if there is another way to do this.
Like just fire the rules on SAVE or priority or something?
Preventing rules to fire during form updates
Re: Preventing rules to fire during form updates
IF you have the rules ONLY fire on the server and not dynamic, then it should only check that the fields have a value when saved to the disk.

Re: Preventing rules to fire during form updates
or, like bruce says, add a DYNAMIC Rule that says
IF FIELD1 WAS CHANGED TO UNDEFINED THEN
FIELD2 = UNDEFINED
And that should blank the 2nd one when u blank the 1st one.
ok, If you blank the 2nd one 1st.. then I dunno - another rule? or check both
