Launching a Rule From the Projects View

The Projects view displays the available projects. Use this view to select a business rule that is part of a specific project. The available projects are the projects defined in the Business Rules node of Administration Services. All projects in the repository for the server specified in the Logon URL and to which you have access are displayed. You can view the contents of one project at a time.

*  To launch a business rule in a project:

  1. On the Business Rules Home page, click the plus sign (+) next to Projects and select a project.

  2. From within the selected project, select the business rule to launch.

  3. Verify the Execution Database Name.

    The Execution Database Name is the name of the Essbase or Planning database against which you want to launch the rule.

    When you create a rule, you can associate a database for which the rule is valid. This is the database that appears under Execution Database Name. If desired, you can change the database in the Execution Database Name field.

  4. If the rule contains runtime prompts, enter the requested information.

    See Entering Runtime Prompts.

  5. Click Validate to validate the rule.

    If the rule validates with no errors, the Confirmation page displays; otherwise, an error page displays.

  6. Select the desired option on the Confirmation page, and click Launch.

    You can Launch and Await Completion or Launch and Send Email When Complete. See Launch and Await Completion and Launch and Send Email When Complete.
