rule execution while importing data

greg

I have a calculated attribute PhoneExtension and the following rule to define it

If (Staff.PhoneNumberOffice WAS CHANGED OR Staff IS NEW ) AND Staff.PhoneNumberOffice CONTAINS '9845' Then
Staff.PhoneExtension=CHARS_FROM_RIGHT(Staff.PhoneNumberOffice,5)

This rule works every time when PhoneNumberOffice attribute is changed but it does not calculate PhoneExtension when I import data, including PhoneNumberOffice from a file. What am I doing wrong?

Did you tick "Validate data" checkbox when you were importing data?

This is what happens when you import data:

When "validate data" is not checked rules are not executed (UNLESS imported data has references) - as a result calculated attributes are not calculated. However, import happens much faster.
When "validate data" is checked all rules are executed as usual, however, import happens much slower.
