Hi, This is pretty much expected behaviour. If you modify the facts in working memory and if the changes satisfy the rule obviously it will fire. So you can do one thing. u can modify the corresponding DTO such a way that it is not satisfying the predicate logic in the previous 5 rules. If the current object is firing again and again u can use the attribute no-loop truue Any other better options from anybody?
