When you analyze (or re-analyze) a business rule, you run a check against the specified expression elements. If you are creating a new business rule or copying or editing existing rules, run a business rule analysis as a best practice to make sure the results are current and accurate.

Run business rule analysis to:

  • Help determine if the expression statements are correctly written
  • Refresh data results
  • Help ensure your data is still in compliance based on the rule's passing threshold; for example, after you run the analysis, view passing and failing row results. For more information, see Viewing Passing and Failing Rules.

Run an analysis if the Status column for the rule reads analysis reqd; generally after a rule has been added, modified, or a library rule has been copied into a data source. When you make a small change to a rule, the change is reflected immediately and you do not need to re-analyze the rule.

Note: You must enable rules before running them.
