Atlas — Standard Section rules

Your system contains hundreds of standard section rules. Most useful in your application are those that apply to the Work- or Work-Cover- class. Others — typically that apply to @baseclass — support a composite portals. (Additiona standard sections support developer-oriented flow processing, such as that provided by the Application Accelerator and Connector wizard.)

To understand the structure of a harness-based form, use the Rules Inspector tool to identify the underlying harness, section, and property rules.

To see a complete list of the standard and custom section rules available to you (based on your RuleSets and security), use the Rules by Type Explorer.

These standard section rules are notable:
