VEE Group Matrix (Factor)

Another situation likely to occur in many implementations is where specific rules may need to be applied to measurement data based on specific criteria, such as geography. For example, some geographic territories may have unique VEE Rules in addition to rules that are applied to all geographic territories. The "VEE Group Matrix (Factor)" rule allows for a Factor to determine which VEE Rule gets executed based on defined characteristics.

Note:

Additional detail on the logic of this rule can be found in the Detailed Description of the D1-AVEER-FCT Algorithm Type.

For help with the meaning of specific configuration fields, refer to the embedded help on the screen when adding or editing the rule.

Prerequisite Setup

Since the prerequisite setup items for this rule are more involved, the following procedure describes these in detail:

  1. Create the Characteristic Type and Values to be used by the factor that will be referenced by the rule.
  2. Create the Characteristic Source Algorithm to be used by the factor that will be referenced by the rule.
  3. Create the VEE Groups to be associated to the characteristic values.
  4. Create the Factor that will be referenced by the rule.
  5. Create the Factor Values for the factor, each referencing an effective-dated characteristic value/VEE group pairings.
  6. Create the rule, referencing the factor
