A library ABR stored in a library attribute becomes a centralized, shareable library rule. To add an ABR to a library attribute, you either create an ABR in the Library or promote an existing ABR.

During the promotion process, you have the choice to copy the rule to the Library and keep an association to the original rule, make a copy without associations, or copy the rule and delete the original. You can modify these associations at any time. You can also associate a library attribute (and all the rules it contains) with a real attribute. For more information about associations between ABRs, see Associating Library Attributes.

Note: Deleted rules cannot be retrieved or restored.
Guidelines: Note the following when promoting ABRs:
  • You can add multiple ABRs to the same library attribute.
  • You need create and edit permissions on the target library attribute to promote a rule to it.
  • When you promote an ABR to the Standard(1) attribute, the promoted rule will be run against attributes in all subsequent data loads.
  • If you promote a rule by moving the rule to the Library and creating an association, you cannot promote the rule to another library attribute unless the association is removed.
  • You can copy an ABR to more than one library attribute.

To promote an ABR

  1. Click the Entities tab.
  2. Expand an entity and right-click the attribute that contains the rule you want to promote.
  3. Select Business rules >Drill down to attribute business rules.

    The ABRs associated with the selected attribute display in the Attribute Business Rules List View.

  4. Select one or more rules.
  5. Right-click the rule(s) and select Library rules >Promote rule.
    Note: Derived rules cannot be promoted. If you select a derived rule, or multiple rules including a derived rule, the Promote rule option is grayed out.

    The Attribute Business Rule – Promote to library window opens. The names of the selected rules display in the Selected Rules field.

  6. In the Promote option section, select one of the following:
    • Move rule to library attribute and create association – This copies the rule as a library rule and maintains a connection to the original (which will display as derived). Changes made to the library rule will be reflected in the derived rule.
    • Copy rule to library attribute – This creates a library rule copy of the original. The copy will have no connection to the original. Click the Delete originalrule box if you want the original rule deleted.
  7. In the Promote selected rules to library attribute section, do one of the following:
    • In the Library Attribute Name column, create a new library attribute by selecting the New field and entering a unique attribute name and description.
    • Select an existing library attribute.
  8. Click Finish.
    Note: If the attribute already contains a rule with the same name, you are alerted and must modify the name before you continue.

    Note the following:

    • If you moved the business rule and created an association, the Derived column displays yes and the Library column displays the name of the library attribute to which you promoted the rule.
    • If you made a copy of the business rule, the original rule remains.
    • If you made a copy of the business rule and deleted the rule, the original rule no longer displays in the Attribute Business Rules List View.
  9. To re-analyze the rules in the Attribute Business Rule List View, see Running Business Rule Analysis.
    Note: To modify the original rule only, you must disassociate it from the rules library.
