Controlling your Rule Group

Functional Controls

Right clicking your Rule Group allows you to access further functional control:

Open

Opens your Rule Group in the Rule Group Editing Screen.

Copy

Rule Groups are created in a specific Target. The standard development process would be to start with Rules and Rule Groups in the Development Target promote to Test to test them and then move to Production when your testing has been validated.

You can copy your Rule Group between Targets.

• If the Rules in the Rule Group do not exist in the Target you are copying into the copy process will create the Rules automatically

• If the Rules in the Rule Group do exist in the Target you are copying into the copy process will update the Rules automatically with the Rule Group verison.

• In each scenario the Rules are created or overwritten in the state they were in the original Target. This is important when copying a Rule group into Production. If the Rules in Development are “Running” and are “Paused” in Production. Copying from Development to Production will overwrite it and it will start in a “Running” state.

Global parameters should be considered as you move rules between Targets.
