Stage rules enable you to capture stage functionality for reuse so that it can be inherited from a framework. For instance, you can easily reorder stages in a framework without having to specialize the case type. In addition, you can share the rule among sibling case types. For example, you can define a common set of stages such as Needs assessment, or Customer Verification, which can be shared across case types in Lending, Investments and Deposits product families.

Stages that are associated with a specific case type and cannot be reused are called virtual stages. You typically configure them on the Case Designer Stages & Processes tab. Alternatively, you can configure virtual stages on the case type form's Stages tab.

When designing stages for a case type, you can use stage rules, virtual stages, or a combination of both.
