Disable a rule

If you published a rule in error, users with the appropriate permission can disable that rule so it stops running in all study versions for a given mode.

Note:

When you disable a rule, it becomes inactive only in the mode where you disabled it. For instance, if you disable a rule in Production mode, you deactivate it only in Production but you can still test it in Testing mode.

On the Rule Management page, you can view all your study's custom rules by mode. From that interface you can also disable (and enable) rules, individually and in bulk, for any mode.

• See Manage rules in Testing mode from the Rule Management page to view and manage rules under development and already published in Testing mode.
• See Manage published rules from the Rule Management page to view and manage active rules in Production and Training modes.

1. Access your study in a specific mode.
2. If you have access to multiple sites for the study, select a site from the Site drop-down.
3. In the table, locate and click the visit card that you want to edit.
4. Select the question that contains the rule that you want to disable.
5. On the right-side panel, expand the Rules section.
6. Click the menu icon for the rule that you want to disable and select Disable.

The rule is now disabled in all study versions running for the given mode.

To disable a rule in any other mode, access you study in that specific mode and repeat the steps above.
