Skip Declare Expression calculation based on condition
Is it possible to skip Declare Expression calculation based on condition?
E.g I have property ".AccountNumber" and I want have it recalculated by DE only if ".Type" != "Other". I tried to avoid using conditions inside of DE and otherwise condition with ".AccountNumber" = ".AccountNumber", but such circular references are not supported

I don't really want to use such workarounds. Especially with additional rules involved.

Hi
May be you can try invoking the DE with below options under "Change Tracking" :
- When applied by a Rule Collection
- When invoked procedurally

If memory serves I have used
@pxGetPropertyValue(myStepPage, "myPropName")
to echo the current property value harmlessly.
I'm not sure if this will work, but I was able to get around the circular reference by having the otherwise set the value of the property to the output of a MapValue rule. That rule just returns the current value of the property.
Does this actually work if you try it?
