Exam CAD topic 1 question 9 discussion

Question should be asking about async business rules

A display BR is Before the form is presented to the user, just after the data is read from the database, so there will be always the current data not the previous data which was stored in the database, however the previous object available, but not sure it holds any value to it. As per the definition of Display BR it should not hold any previous data.

Docs says current and gscratchpad are available for ondisplay br.

A is correct answer.

But the problem is, that g_scratchpad is also not available in Async BR...

Business Rules often use the current and previous objects in their script logic. The current object is automatically instantiated from the GlideRecord class. The current object's properties are all the fields for a record and all the GlideRecord methods. The property values are the values as they exist in the runtime environment. The previous object is also automatically instantiated from the GlideRecord class. The previous object's properties are also all fields from a record and the GlideRecord methods. The property values are the values for the record fields when they were loaded from the database and before any changes were made. The previous object is not available for use in async Business Rules.

Yes, I think this should be about async business rules: https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/tokyo-application-development/page/script/business-rules/concept/c_BusinessRules.html

Previous is only unavailable in Async Business Rules

A is correct
