As a default, the rules of a decision tree are always in effect. You can set an in effect date at branch level or at decision tree level. If you set an in effect date at branch level, it only applies to the rule that is represented by this branch. If you set an in effect date at decision tree level, it applies to all rules of this decision tree.

To set an in effect date at branch level:

1. Open the decision tree as described in Opening a Decision Entity.

2. Lock the decision tree as described in Locking a Decision Entity.

3. Select the In Effect node at the end of the branch.

4. Click

. 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
