Validation Rules and Trigger execution points are composed of four "post-action" execution points, OnCreate, OnSave, AfterSave, and OnDelete, where the create, save, or delete action has occurred or is certain to occur, and four "pre-action" execution points, BeforeView, BeforeEdit, BeforeSave, and BeforeDelete, where conditions can be validated before the actions occur. The differences between Validation Rules and Triggers actually have to do with the actions taken within the setting. Validation Rules will contain Alert actions that inform the user of a failed condition. Triggers will often update the current record or other records with no user interaction. Validation Rules and Triggers can be combined in Pulsar, and all of the logic for a particular object type and execution point can be contained in a single setting.

Note, besides this single object format, the OnCreate setting also supports a parent/child format. See OnCreate Trigger section below for more information.the AfterLogin and OnCreate settings have alternative formats. See sections below for more information.

AfterLogin Trigger

The AfterLogin trigger executes upon navigating to the home screen after signing in or tapping the username to start your session.

Setting Format:

Name:  After Login Trigger
Key:     pulsar.afterLogin
Value:  Pulsar Settings Language

Here is an example setting that displays an alert after the user signs in indicating whether the last sync performed was successful or not.

DEFAULT{
Action=SetVar;
VarName=X;
VarValue=@@LastSyncSuccess;
|
Action=SqlQuery;
QueryString=select case when '%%X%%' = 'TRUE' then 1 else 0 end as Success;
QueryReturnFields=Success;
QueryTest=%%Success%%==1;
QueryTestTrue=Success;
|
Action=Alert;
Message=Your last sync failed, please try to sync again. If this continues, please contact your administrator;
}

Success{
Action=Alert;
Message=Last sync was successful!;
}

OnCreate Triggers

The OnCreate trigger executes whenever the plus button is tapped. There are two separate execution points that override the plus button on the listviews or on a specific child related list (see below for these two formats). When this setting is specified, the standard behavior to show the object in create mode is overridden with custom PSL code. This means that the PSL must ultimately handle how to respond to the plus button tap. For example, if the standard behavior is needed, the 'CreateAndMapFields' PSL action should be called as the last action in the custom PSL.
