Setting an In Effect Date at Decision Table 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. In effect dates at rule level supersede in effect dates at decision table level.
*To set an in effect date at decision table level:
1. Open the decision table in the editor as described in Opening a Decision Entity.
2. When the editor has focus, select the In Effect tab in the Properties view.
Note:
The Properties view displays information about assets that are currently selected in the editor or in any of the views. If you switch the focus from the asset, the displayed information in the Properties view changes accordingly.
3. In the In Effect tab, select Always in effect (default), Never in effect, or Date and time frame in effect. If you select Date and time frame in effect, select an operator as described in About In Effect Operators and specify a date and time (optional).
Note:
Setting an in effect date at decision table level overwrites the in effect date specified at rule level.
The decision table is now marked with a clock icon in the upper left corner. If you move the pointer over the clock icon, a tooltip indicates the specified in effect date.
