How the Rule Hierarchy Works
Oracle Sales Compensation tests rules in the hierarchy starting with the rule at the top, and moving down from left to right. When a compensation transaction passes a rule (all conditions are true), Oracle Sales Compensation tests the children of that rule, working left to right, until it finds a match. Then it looks at the children of that rule--and so on--until it reaches the bottom of the hierarchy, returning the revenue class of the last matching rule. Figure 3 - 12 shows an example of Global's revenue classification rules.
