Lock a Rule Book
By default, a rule book is always unlocked. For reasons of security, you may want to lock the rule book so that it cannot be modified, enabled or disabled. Locked rule books also cannot be imported.
Multiple rule books may be locked at a time. Lock a rule book as follows:
- Select the rule book to be locked.
-
Click the
More Actions
icon and then click
Lock. The locked rule book
is identified with the
Locked icon.
