Butterfly Effect

Butterfly Effect



While updating records using gr, we can use several additional methods that would affect the outcome. Let us look at some of the methods below

1. setWorkflow(false) - stops any business rule or workflow engine from running. 

2. autoSysFields(false) - tells system not to update the system fields like sys_updated_on, sys_updated_by, sys_created_by etc

3. setForceUpdate(true) - forces the business rules and workflow engine to run, despite not having any actual update.

Imagine how a simple line of code could result in different outcomes, a butterfly effect for the records in question.
