A combined rule combines more than one action to generate a single rule. Each action is defined by one line within the rule. Combining the lines or individual actions defines the overall combined rule.
Suggestion: You can use a combined specialization rule as one of many rules to specialize a manager.
Exclude | Oracle ID - APPS |
Result | The manager reads requests to run concurrent programs that connect to any Oracle ID, except those programs that connect to Oracle ID "APPS". |
Include | Oracle ID - APPS2 |
Result | The manager only reads requests to run concurrent programs that connect to Oracle ID "APPS2". |
You can exclude more kinds of requests by adding more Exclude lines to your combined rule.
Exclude | Program - Oracle Sales & Marketing, No entry for Name field. |
Exclude | Program - Oracle Inventory, No entry for Name field. |
Net Result | The manager reads all requests to run concurrent programs except requests for programs for the application "Oracle Sales & Marketing", and requests for programs for the application "Oracle Inventory". |
You cannot use two Include actions for the same action type. Each Include action is an exclusive statement for a particular type of action. For example, you cannot require a request to be for a program that connects to two different Oracle IDs.
Include | Program - Oracle Payables, No entry for Name field. |
Include | Program - Oracle Payables Confirm Receipt Batch |
Net Result | The manager only reads requests to run a single program, Confirm Receipt Batch, and only if that program is from the application "Oracle Payables". |
For example, it does not make sense to require a request to be for a program that connects to the Oracle ID "APPS" and disallow a request to connect to another Oracle ID.
Include | Program - Oracle Payables Invoice Import |
Exclude | Oracle ID - APPS2 |
Net Result | The manager reads requests to run the Oracle Payables Invoice Import program, but will not run the program when it connects to the Oracle ID "APPS2". The Exclude action overrides the Include action. |
Include | User - Sheryl |
Include | Program - Oracle Project Accounting Distribute Usage Costs |
Net Result | The manager only reads requests submitted by Sheryl to run the Distribute Usage Costs program. |
Include | User - Sheryl |
Exclude | Program - Oracle Project Accounting Expenditure Status |
Net Result | The manager only reads requests submitted by Sheryl, excluding requests to run the Oracle Project Accounting program Accounting Expenditure Status. |
Include | Request Type - Oracle Project Accounting Expenditure Reports |
Include | Oracle ID - APPS2 |
Exclude | Program - Oracle Project Accounting Expenditure Status |
Net Result | The manager only reads requests to run programs belonging to the Oracle Project Accounting request type "Reports", run against the Oracle ID "APPS2", excluding the program Expenditure Reports. |
