Changing rule status and availability
The Rule-.pyMethodStatus property indicates how a rule is used in the system. You can change a rule's status, as well as its availability, in the rule form header.
- Open the rule and click the rule status (if available) in the header or its availability.
- Select the rule availability from the Availability list.
- Available
- Not available
- Blocked
- Final
- Withdrawn
- From the Status list, select one of the following options.
- API
You must also specify an interface name.
- Deprecated
You must also enter deprecation information in the Usage tab.
- Extension
- Template
- Blank status: Select the blank entry (do not select a status) if there are no special use cases for a rule.
- The Base Rule check box appears if rules of this rule type can be circumstance-qualified or time-qualified, but this rule itself is not qualified. For rules you have created in this system, leave this check box cleared in most cases.
- For rules created in PRPC Version 5.2 and later, the check box is cleared by default, to encourage recommended practices.
- For rules created in PRPC Version 5.1 or earlier, the check box is selected by default, to preserve past behavior.
Note: Select the Base Rule check box if this rule is (or might later become) a for one or more other, qualified rules and you want to enforce a restriction on the ruleset versions that was the normal behavior in PRPC Version 5.1 and earlier. When selected, this rule is a base rule only for circumstance-qualified rules that exactly match this rule's ruleset version. That is, circumstance-qualified rules in lower versions are not ever selected by rule resolution.
- Click Save.
