Use application rules to define an ordered set of RuleSets and versions that together identify the parts of a Pega 7 Platformapplication. In addition, application rules relate the application's objectives, specifications, and actors to objects created as part of the Direct Capture of Objectives tools and wizards.

As a best practice, use the Application Overview landing page rather than this rule form to view and edit many of this rule's settings.

Where referenced

Access groups can reference application rules. In addition, application rules can reference other application rules.

Access

Use the Records Explorer to list all the application rules that are available to you.

Category

Application rules part of the Application Definition category. An application rule is an instance of the Rule-Application class.
