Rule sets are groups of rules and attributes stored in the Library. Rule sets allow you to reuse business rules to help foster consistency of data quality standards across teams and data repositories. When you add a rule set, you have the option of adding attributes, rules, and data source associations now or at a later time.

The Add New Rule Set to Library window guides you through the three-step process, including Name Rule Set, Attribute Options, and Add Rule Options.

Note: Associating a rule set to one or more data sources is optional but recommended. You cannot associate rule sets to data sources until you have added at least one attribute and one rule.

To add a rule set

  1. Do one of the following:
    • On the Home page, go to the Add panel. In the Choose a category drop-down list, select New Rule Set, then click the plus icon ().
    • On the left navigation menu:
    • Select Rules > Add New Rule Set.
    • Select Library > Rules Library. In the Business Rules Library, click Add New Rule Set.

    The Add New Rule Set to Library window opens.

  2. In the Name Rule Set section:
    1. For Name, enter the name of the rule set. The Save button is enabled.
    2. For Description, enter a brief description of the rule set.
    3. Click Save.

    Note the following;

    • The following message displays: The Rule Set Name has been added to the Library. If you click the rule set name in the message, the Add New Rule Set to Library window closes and the Rule Set: Name panel opens.
    • The Add Attributes, Add Another Rule Set, and Done buttons are enabled.
    • Click Done at any time to add the rule set to the Library and close the Add New Rule Set to Library window.
  3. In the Attribute Options section, click Add Attributes. See Adding and Editing Attributes.
  4. In the Add Rule Options section, click Add Rule. See Adding and Editing Rules.
  5. After you name the rule set and, optionally add attributes and business rules, do one of the following:
    • To create an association (or link) between the new rule set and the rules and attributes in a data source, click Associate Rule Set to Data Source. See Associating Rule Sets with Data Sources Overview.
    • Click Add Another Rule Set to add another rule set to the Library.
    • Click Done to close the Add New Rule Set to Library window. The Rule Set: Name panel opens for the last rule set you added. You can review and edit the rule set as needed. See Editing Rule Sets.
