application ruleset

For a requestor, an application RuleSet is a RuleSet that appears in any of the following form fields:

• On the General tab of the application rule referenced in the access group for a requestor (when the current work pool is part of this application)
• (Recursively) On the General tab of a 'parent' application rule, if the Include Parent check box on theGeneral tab of a 'child' application is checked.
• In the Local Customization field on the Settings tab of the access group

This is a collection of RuleSets, not a collection of RuleSet versions. The set of application RuleSets determines which rules are reflected in the Application Explorer tool, Profile Explorer tool, Guardrails tool, and the Documentation wizard. This list is used only by developer tools; it is not relevant to run-time execution of the application.

From the Designer Studio, click your name (in the navigation panel) to see the profile display. Locate the list labeled Application RuleSets.

In some situations, your application RuleSets list may include rules that you do not consider part of the application, or may exclude others you expect.

• The application RuleSet does not include your personal RuleSet, which contains rules checked out to you
• The application RuleSet does not include rules in RuleSets specified in the Production RuleSets array in your access group.
• Rules from RuleSet versions listed in the Requestor Type data instance, Organization data instance, or Division data instance are not included unless these RuleSets also appear in the application rule.

Select Application from the profile menu to open your current application rule.

An operator's full RuleSet list — in contrast to the Application RuleSets list — is an ordered list of RuleSet versions — not RuleSets. Your RuleSet list often contains additional RuleSets not present on the Application RuleSets list.
