Releasing Rule
Releasing Rule
Rules are organized into a logic tree. A rule is processed or 'released' when the condition of the rule before it (the releasing rule) is met. When a releasing rule triggers more than one rule, the released rules are processed in sequential order by rule number, alpha numeric taking precedence over numeric. The virtual rule (00000 00) begins all processing. If the rule number is alphanumeric, it can be all numbers, all letters, or a combination of both.
