Email Notifications with only comments in the advanced condition do not trigger because the condition is evaluate to false - Known Error

Email Notifications with only comments in the advanced condition do not trigger because the condition is evaluate to false Description When the advanced condition consists of just commented code, the email notification will not trigger. With only a simple comment, and nothing else, the advanced condition is evaluated to false.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a notification. e.g. On the incident table 2. On the notification advanced condition add a comment: e.g. // testing comment on advance condition 3. Trigger the notification

You will see that the notification does not trigger or execute.

Workaround After carefully considering the severity and frequency of the issue, and the cost and risk of attempting a fix, it has been decided to not address this issue in any current or near future releases. We do not make these decisions lightly, and we apologize for any inconvenience. As a workaround, if there is not code on the advance condition, remove all the comments from it, leaving it blank . Advanced conditions scripts return the last operation's result. Ensure the script returns TRUE as required.
