After you create transformation rules, you can delete, disable, or arrange them in the desired execution order. The rules are processed from top to bottom in the order shown in the list.

When you delete transformation rules, they are not removed entirely from the Transformer process or the Library of Stored Transformation Rules. Deleting will simply remove the rule from the condition associated with it so that the rule will not be executed. A "deleted" rule still exists as a stored rule in the process and can be reused by the Add > Existing option. If you want to remove rules completely from the process (and the Library of Stored Transformation Rules), you must use the Remove Unused Operations option.

Note: If an input entity is removed from Transformer, then any associated transformation rules will also be removed.
