Convert rule from “When: Object updated” to “Scheduled”

Antonia

I want to modify a rule so that it does not always run when an asset is updated, but only once a month.

I then copied the original rule and added a schedule in front of it with a lookup function, but it doesn't work. How else should I use it?

It doesn't work without the lookup function either. I just thought the rule needed something to tell it where to look.

Lookup function, Query: objectType = "[NAME]"

Brief explanation of the rule:
The rule should always run on the first day of the month and check how the name of an asset begins. If it begins with “XYZ,” a tag should be added to the field; if the name begins with “ABC,” a different tag should be added.

You cannot use automation to edit Assets objects without an associated work item. You always have to start with the work item and if that one is associated with an Asset object you do the editing of the object.

Hi @Antonia

When using as lookup you will need to branch based on the {{lookupObjects}} as you need to iterate over the found objects.

The initial rule acts on a change of a single object, by changing it to scheduled with a lookup it will find multiple objects and you will need to address each found object.

Hi @Marc -Devoteam-

thanks for your reply.

So, under the lookup, I create a For AQL loop and then I have to put all the “If” and “Then” statements in the loop?
Or what exactly do I have to write in the lookup?
I have several requirements.
If an asset starts with “ABC”, write “abc” in the tag.
If an asset starts with “XYZ”, write “xyz” in the tag.
If an asset starts with “123”, write “890” in the tag.
