Purpose

An Access When rule defines a test that the system performs to allow, or disallow, a requestor to perform an operation on an instance of a specific class.

NoteDon't confuse the Rule-Access-When rule type — referenced only to control user access to a class — with the more widely used Rule-Obj-When rule type. The forms are similar, but the purpose and references are different.

Where referenced

BELLM 6/11/02 You can reference Access When rules in Access of Role to Object rules and Access Deny rules, as an alternative to a system production level number.

For a property that has a Type of TextEncrypted, an Access When rule controls when the system decrypts the encrypted value. If your system uses the TextEncrypted type, limit the ability to create, update or delete rules of this type, as such rules can enable access to the decrypted values.
