After studying for the pl-400, it seemed like it was pointing to "If a business rule can be used, it should be used". So for instance;If I need to hide and show values based on what a user chooses in a dropdown, I should be doing this via a business rule because it can be done with one? I would believe its faster than a flow but is it faster than a JS script on the form for when that dropdown value changes? Is there any other reason why a business rule should be used here?
Hi @ChannelDevMike ,
The business rule is "no code" vs. writing and maintaining the JS. Not sure if it is faster or not than JavaScript but it is high performance from my experience. You can also have business rules that apply at the Entity level vs. the Form level to allow the rules to execute server-side so it can execute without the need for the form (or tying to a form).
So would you say that overall the idea that "If a business rule can be used, it should be used" is correct?
I would agree 🙂
