Setting an In Effect Date at Rule Level
As a default, the rules of a decision table are always in effect. You can set an in effect date at rule level or at decision table level. If you set an in effect date at rule level, it only applies to this rule. If you set an in effect date at decision table level, it applies to all rules of this decision table.
*To set an in effect date at rule level:
1. Open the decision table as described in Opening a Decision Entity.
2. Lock the decision table as described in Locking a Decision Entity.
3. In the In Effect column, select the rule you want to edit.
4. Do one of the following:
a. Click The calendar icon, and select a date. Enter a time (optional).
b. Click The edit icon. In the Edit in effect dates dialog box, select Always in effect (default), Never in effect, or Date and time frame in effect. If you click Date and time frame in effect, select an operator as described in About In Effect Operators, and specify a date and time (optional). Click The finish button.
