Correspondence Fragment rules
Completing the Create, Save As or Specialization form

Records can be created in various ways. You can add a new record to your application or copy an existing one. You can specialize existing rules by creating a copy in a specific ruleset, against a different class or (in some cases) with a set of circumstance definitions. You may copy data instances but they do not support specialization as they are not versioned.

Based on your use case, the Create, Save As or Specialization form is used to create the record. The number of fields and available options vary by record type. Start by familiarizing yourself with the generic layout of these forms and their common fields:

• Completing the Create form
• Completing the Save As form
• Completing the Specialization form

This help topic identifies the key parts and options that are applicable to the record type you are creating.

Create a correspondence fragment rule by selecting Correspondence Fragment from the Process category.

Key parts:

A correspondence fragment rule has two key parts:

Field	Description
Stream Name	Enter a name of your choice for this fragment. Begin the name with a letter and use only alphanumeric, ampersand, and dash characters.
Correspondence Type	Identify a correspondence type in which this fragment is to be available. (A correspondence type is a key to a Rule-CorrType instance.)

Rule resolution

When searching for a correspondence fragment rule, the system:

• Filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list of RuleSets and versions
• Finds circumstance-qualified rules that override base rules with the same key
• Finds time-qualified rules that override base rules
