Records can be created in various ways. You can add a new record to your application or copy an existing one. You can specialize existing rules by creating a copy in a specific ruleset, against a different class or (in some cases) with a set of circumstance definitions.

Product rules are rarely referenced by other rules. However, when searching for a Product rule, the system:
Class-based inheritance does not apply. Time-qualified resolution features are not available for Product rules.
