When referring to an instance of a rule or a rule category, it is not necessary to include the word rule or the fully qualified class name. Use the common name instead.

If you are unsure what the common name is, refer to the form header or inspect the tree structure in the Records Explorer. For example, refer to instances of Rule-Obj-Model as Data Transforms. The following screen shows how to find the common rule name:
