Business rules do not fire when a record is created/updated/deleted via an update setIssue It is by platform design that business rules (update/insert/delete) do not run when a record is created/modified via an update set. This is regardless if the update set is imported via xml, remote source, etc. Records created/modified/deleted via update sets bypass the standard workflows which cause BR's to be triggered. Subsequent local record creation/modification/deletion will trigger business rules as expected. ReleaseAnyResolutionThis is by design and there is no workaround/resolution known.
