Add a rule
A rule node allows you to use business rules that have been made available.
You can add a rule to your workflow from any node. When you add a rule, you must map the inputs and output parameters as per the TotalAgility Designer.
-
Click
below the Start node or any other node.
The Add activity dialog box is displayed.
- On the Activity type list, select Rule. (Default: Manual Task)
- By default, the Rule appears as the Title. You can modify the name for your rule as required.
-
On the
Business rule list, select the rule that has been made available for use
within
Quick Workflow. Refer to "Add a workflow to
Quick Workflow" in
TotalAgility Designer
Help for more information.
The input and output parameters for the selected business rule appear.
-
Map the
Input and
Output parameters using process or server variables, or by providing a static
value.
If the required variable is not available, you can create a new variable using the direct link ().
- You can set dependents for the activity if it has two paths that flow into it by specifying the tasks that must be completed before this activity can be completed. To only use the dependent when its path is active, select Only if active for that node.
-
Click
Add. The Rule node is added, and the properties are displayed in the
properties panel.
