Step 11: Processing Rules

When you create a rule in Time Administration you must assign the rule to an Application Engine section. When it is time to execute the rule, Process Rules uses the Rule Map created in Step 4 − Building the Rule Map, to call the AE section for the appropriate rule and period of interest. Each rule in a Rule Program is processed for every time reporter to whom the rule applies at the same time.

Note: To protect the integrity of the source data, you should always run rules that change or manipulate time against the data in the Intermediate Payable Time tables rather than against the scheduled or reported time tables.
