Notes on Issue and Group usage
- In the Create form, the application pre-populates Issue and Group using the values of these fields on the Campaign.
- In the Save As form, the application pre-populates Issue and Group using the corresponding values from the original Volume Constraint rule.
- Issue and Group serve as logical abstractions for the class where the Volume Constraint rule is stored. See Using Issues and Groups to store rules
Rule resolution
When searching for Volume Constraint rules, the system:
- Filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list of RuleSets and versions
- Searches through ancestor classes in the class hierarchy for candidates when no matching rule is found in the starting class
- Finds circumstance-qualified rules that override base rules
