You can create a specialized or circumstance rule to create a variant of the rule that can be triggered only conditionally. The created rule is resolved and active only when the specified conditions are met. Create specialized or circumstance rules to address dynamic business requirements without changing the core logic every time.
The Save As and Specialize by toolbar tools are restricted to those users who hold the privilege @baseclass.ToolbarFull or @baseclass.ToolbarSaveAs.
Because the Specialization forms share most of the fields and functionality on the Create form, only exceptions and special cases are outlined in this topic.
Provide a name for the specialized rule.
Click Property and Date to create a circumstance of a rule by a property, date, or a combination of both.
Date combinations and business requirements lists the possible date combinations and the business-logic requirements they meet.
If you do not specify a date property, the specified time period is always evaluated against the current system date.
This rule is active during the specified time interval. At all other times, the base rule is active. During rule resolution, if two or more date circumstance versions are candidates at the current time and date, the application selects the candidates with the nearest end date. Of these, if multiple remaining candidate rules have the same end date, the application picks the candidate with the most recent start date.
