Context; making a canvas app based on CDS.
- I created a new entity with a field named StartX (type integer) and Distance (type integer)
- I added a business rule with IF logical test
- evaluating the True branche leads to the formula: StartX = StartX + Distance
When I store this business rule, I receive a message that the rule is successfully evaluated.
But when I activate the rule, I receive an error stating that the formula contains a cyclic reference.
I used the same formula earlier in another version of the App, based on a SharePoint list. As expected, the same formula is then successfully evaluated.
So, my question is: why doesn't a business rule in a CDS allow for the evaluation of x=x+1?
