Applied

The rule script applies the outcome of the rule to the item with the applied dependency. If a form rule fails, the item designated as the applied dependency receives a query. If the rule performs a calculation or assigns a randomization drug kit, the item designated as the applied dependency receives the result of the calculation or randomization. For a form rule to run, this item and all items classified as dependencies must have an entered value. For a calculation rule to run, this item does not need an entered value.

In the following example, the Body Temp item is an applied dependency of the context for the Body Temp rule. The rule runs when the Vital Signs form is submitted with data in the Body Temp item. If the rule fails, the Body Temp item receives a query.
