Searching Library Business Rules - 17.1

In the Business Rules Library, from the All Library Rules tab, you can view all rules in the library. You can customize the list of rules by running a filtered rule search using conditions. This is helpful if you have dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of library rules. When you add a rule to a rule set, it becomes a library rule. Rule sets allow you to group, import, and export sets of rules for use across repositories.

1. In the left navigation menu, select Library > Rules Library. The Business Rules Library opens.
2. Click the All Library Rules tab. By default, the Show All search is active and the tab populates with all rules in the library.
3. To run a search using conditions, click Filtered Search. The conditions panel opens.
4. Select the ALL (default) or the ANY operator to build one or more condition(s).
5. Build your conditions by selecting metadata (left drop-down list), operators (middle drop-down list), and populating the right text box or drop-down list depending on the metadata and operators you select.
   1. Click the rules metadata drop-down list (left) and select one of the following options:

      Aggregating	Filter Expression	Rule Set Name
      Aggregate Expression	Grouping	Threshold
      Description	Group Expression
      Enabled	Priority
      Expression	Rule Name
      Filtering

   2. Click the operator drop-down list (middle) and select from the available options:

      contains	equals
      does not contain	greater than
      does not equal	less than
      ends with	starts with

      Note: Depending on the metadata selected, not all operators are available.
   3. In the text box (right), enter the keyword by which to filter the rules. The text string you enter is not case-sensitive. For some metadata selections, text boxes are replaced with a drop-down list of additional metadata to choose. For example:
      • For Aggregating, select either yes or no to find rules that use (equals) or do not use (does not equal) aggregation expressions.
      • For Grouping, select either yes or no to find rules that use (equals) or do not use (does not equal) grouping expressions.
      • For Priority, select a rule priority from the drop-down list.
      • For Threshold, enter a percentage value. If you do not add an appropriate value, you see the message: Enter Percentage Value.
