2. Create a standalone scoped table with a column named 'number'.

   Scoped fields do not get a 'u_' prefix, so on the database/dictionary/storage alias level, the field name can match an OOB field name.

4. Create the same table again, and extends tasks.
5. Open the application record and publish it to an update set.

   The update set contains delete updates for the table and the number field.

6. Import the update set on the target instance and preview it.

   The update set contains an insert and delete updates for the same table (which will be created in a task hierarchy) and a delete update for the number field.

Every time a single sys_user is updated, the whole user_criteria_cache is flushed. When the user_criteria_cache is flushed, it must be rebuilt for every user who performs an operation that is controlled with user criteria. Depending on how slow it is to evaluate the scripts of all user criteria records, this has varying degrees of impact on system performance ranging from mild slowness to extreme degradation.

2. Try to view a Knowledge base record.

KB0635121

When creating a template with 'Watch List' (glide_list) as a template variable, if there is a comma-separated item chosen, it will splice the display name and display an error: "Please enter a valid email address or User."

This limits user ability to set template values for Watch List, especially when they have the 'Last Name, First Name' display name format, as it doesn't allow the users to select those comma-separated items.

Based on a baseline instance, where the User Name field is calculated based on the values of First name and Last name in the user record. If the display value for the user name is different in the instance working with, the goal is to get a comma to appear in the display value of the user record. Other data may need to be modified if the display column is not the same as baseline.

1. Bring up the sys_user record for Abel Tuter.
2. Change the first name to Ab,el.
3. Bring up any existing incident.
4. If the template bar is not displayed at the bottom of the form, press the three dots in the header and select Toggle Template Bar.
5. In the template bar, press the + sign to add a new template.
6. In the list of template fields, change one of them to Watch List, in the left column.

   • Use the magnifying glass to select Ab,el Tuter from the list, click out of the value field, back into the field, and out of the field again.
   • Type ab into the field to start autocompleter, then select Ab,el Tuter from the list, then click out of the value field.

Instead of Abel Tuter being saved as a valid entry in the watch list template field, an error about invalid email, user (Please enter a valid email address or User) and username is partially truncated.

During the business rule processing, if a script updates a record in a different table and the updated record has multiple active workflows, the first workflow updated results in one of the other active workflows being completed or canceled.

When launching a wizard record generator (e.g. out of box on call generator), a global record is created. The global record will trigger any business rules and workflows running off of the global table.

Many on-demand workflows target the global table so that they do not run when a record is generated (i.e. incident, cmdb_ci), but they are available to be run on-demand. Creating this global record will trigger each global workflow which can cause serious performance degradation.
