Service COM rules
Completing the New or Save As form

Create a service package data instance before creating a Service COM rule; the name of this data instance becomes the first key part of a collection of Service COM rules.

A Service COM rule has three key parts. The Class and Method name parts of the key are considered "external" and are unrelated to Process Commander class and methods for flexibility.

Field	Description
Type	Select Service COM from the Integration-Services category.
Customer Package Name	Select a package name that groups related Service COM rules. Choose a name already defined through a Service Package data instance. See About Service Package data instances.
Customer Class Name	Enter a name to logically group related methods. This name may or may not refer to the Process Commander class that the activity belongs to. Make this a legal Visual Basic identifier: start the name with a letter and use only letters, digits, and underscore.
Customer Method Name	Enter a name that describes the Process Commander activity being called by the service. This is not a Process Commander method or a Java method. Make this a valid Visual Basic identifier: start the name with a letter and use only letters, digits, and underscore.

For general information about the New form, see Completing the new rule dialog box. For general information on the Save As form, see How to enter rule keys using Save As.

Rule resolution

When searching for a Service COM rule, the system filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list of RuleSets and versions.

Circumstance-qualified and time-qualified resolution features are not available for Service COM rules. The class hierarchy is not relevant to Service COM rule resolution.
