Types of Rules in the Rules Palette

The Rules Palette assigns each rule to a rule category according to the type of rule. The TypeCode is stored in a column called XMLSchema in the database. It is updated by scripts and is used by the Rules Palette for organization and performance. If a rule is created outside of the Rules Palette and a rule category is not assigned to the rule, then it will not be viewable through the Rules Palette. Rules Palette TypeCodes are different than the type code in Code Names in the Admin Explorer window.

The various types of business rules are listed below. All rule types are defined in the Global Rules Explorer Tab section.
