You can check out a rule to a branch so that you can make changes to a rule and then
save it in the branch ruleset. For information about rule resolution for rules saved to a branch
ruleset, see Rule resolution exceptions.
Because you cannot make changes to rules in a locked ruleset, you can check out a rule
to a branch in your application, make changes, and then check the rule in to your branch. You
can also perform a private checkout.
-
In the ruleform toolbar click
Check out to branch, if available. Otherwise, click the arrow on the
Private edit
button and select
Check out to branch.
-
From the Branch list, select a branch and click
Check out to branch.
The system saves a copy of the rule to the selected branch ruleset and then
checks it out.
-
Modify the rule as appropriate.
-
Click
Save.
-
Check in the rule. For more information, see Checking in a rule.
Note: You do not have to check in your changes immediately. You can log out and
return to a checked-out rule later or click Discard to remove the rule
from your personal ruleset.
If you discard the checked-out version, the original copy of the rule remains in the
branch ruleset.
