Use a circumstance template rule to identify properties for multivariate circumstanced rules. A circumstance template rule contains an array of properties such as .State, .Channel, and .ClaimAmount that reference property values in one or more circumstance definition rules. These rules define the value combinations for each of the properties defined in the circumstance template rule.
