Fields of type Attachment in Trigger Rule.

[kjain2]

Hi Community,

Sharing an another idea:-

In trigger rule there should be an possibility to configure fields of Attachment type. Currently it's not possible and that leads to extra efforts and validations in development.

Use Case 1 :- Let's assume attachment is coming into from any third party tool / location using either Command or SOAP web services. And we have to immediately run our trigger when there is an change in attachment field, currently we need to send one more attribute value together may be logical/boolean and this attribute then need to be use for running trigger.

Use Case 2 :- We need to run our trigger in Integrity if any user modifies the attachment field (Add / Remove or / Replace) we can't do this directly, currently we need to run our trigger on some other field/event/all the time on type(performance comes here in picture) and then in code need to check is there really an update into this attachment field or this run caused by any other field update.

There can be of course more use cases around this, but i hope ground idea is clear.

Feel free to add any supporting points or your thoughts.

Vielen Dank / Many Thanks,

Would be an nice improvement.

In this Same Context Where Trigger should capture the Attachments Change as an event to run some logic, there should also be the way to capture the computations value change so that if there is any change to the computation field the trigger can run some relevant logic.

It would also be benefitial to have such Marker for using Tools for Data Exchange like Symphony from Agosense.

Here the Attachment Handling is complex as well and need some additional Scripting.
