Impact Analysis Search Dialog page (Select Definition dropdown list)

These rules use the fictitious type DefinitionSelection and an impacted definition type to search for the requested definition. For example, the rule DefinitionSelection impacts Record generates SQL that is used to populate theDefinitions Matching Name area in the Impact Analysis Search Dialog (of a new workspace):

select RECNAME from PSRECDEFN
where RECNAME like ':1%' ORDER BY RECNAME

The like ‘:1%’ supports partial name matching from the search dialog.
