Parse Structured rules
|
|
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 can copy data instances but they do not support specialization because they are not versioned.
Based on your use case, you use the Create, Save As, or Specialization form to create the record. The number of fields and available options varies by record type. Start by familiarizing yourself with the generic layout of these forms and their common fields:
This information identifies the key parts and options that apply to the record type that you are creating.
Create a Parse Structured rule by selecting Parse Structured from the Integration-Mapping category.
A Parse Structured rule has two key parts:
Field |
Completing the Field |
|
Apply to |
Select the exact class that this rule applies to. When this rule is referenced in an activity or elsewhere, this key part must match the class provided in the referencing rule, because rule resolution does not search the class hierarchy for parse structured rules. For example, if a service file rule references this parse structured rule, the Primary Page Class on the Service tab must match this Apply to key part. The list of available class names depends on the ruleset you select. Each class can restrict applying rules to an explicit set of rulesets as specified on the Advanced tab of the class form. |

Identifier |
Enter a record type, unique within the class. Begin this key part with a letter and follow the rules for a Java identifier. See How to enter a Java identifier. |

Time-qualified and circumstance-qualified rule resolution features are not available for this rule type.
