Use this session to view, specify, and maintain rules.

To create a rule expression (IF-part):

  1. Select a rule.
  2. Select the Rule Condition command to start the Text Editor.
  3. Enter business functions or business processes following the IF logical operator. Note that you must leave a space between the operators and the operands (for example BF,1).
  4. Close the Text Editor.
