Allows you to Copy your Rule from the Target in which it currently sits to another Target.
The Status of the Rule is copied with it. Therefore, copying a Running Rule will result in a Running Rule being created in another Target.
If the Rule already exists within the Target you are copying into it will overwrite the existing Rule with no further user confirmation. If you have a Rule with a Waiting status and copy in the same Rule with a Running status the Rule will be recreated Running. This should be considered when moving Rules into Production.
When a Rule is copied the "Last Modified Date" in the New or Updated Rule will show the date and time it was copied.
The copied Rules Rule version will start at one for a new Rule in the Target. Each subsequent copy into a Rule will increment the version by one.
Please read the Global Parameters section for more information on how these can be utilized when copying Rules.

Operational Reporting provides information on the use of your Rule. Select a Time period to review the information against , Minutes, Hours or Days to review the information against.
Count Invokes - shows the number of invokes over the time period selected.
Average - Response Time shows in milliseconds how fast the Rule responded during this timeframe.
Timeouts -shows the number of invokes that timed out. This could be due to the Rule being incorrectly built or poor data being passed through.
Operational Reporting can help you compare performance before and after a Rule was changed or at very busy times. For example, have the number of Timeouts or the Average Response Times increased post upgrade. Operational reporting allows you to download the data where it can be review in comparison in excel or graphs created to analyse more deeply.
