This topic explains how to create a child assignment rule group using the delegated assignment administration views.

This task is a step in Process of Making an Assignment Rule Inheritable.

To create a child rule group

1. Navigate to the Administration - Delegated Assignment screen, and then the Rule Group Explorer view.
2. In the Rule Group Explorer, expand the rule group folder for which you want to define a child rule group, and then click Rule Groups.
3. In the My Rule Group Explorer list, click New.
4. In the new rule group record, click in the available fields to enter relevant information for the new group rule.
   1. In the Name field, type a name for the child rule group.
   2. In the Owner Position field, click the select button to query for an owner, and then click OK.

      NOTE:  You must specify an appropriate position for the owner. A position cannot be owner (or designee) for a rule group below one for which that position is already an owner or designee.

      For field descriptions, see Creating Assignment Rule Groups.

      TIP:   Activation and expiration dates are modifiable only at the root-level rule group level in the hierarchy. All other rule groups under the root-level rule group share the same dates and are read only.
