Contract Rule Groups and Contract Rules



http://img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_wrench_allbkg.png

A rule group is a collection of one or many rules while Rules collect one or many related pieces of information. Rules can be grouped so that rules with similar characteristics can be easily referenced and accessed. For example, you can create a rule group for billing that would group together rules for bill to address, billing schedule, and payment terms.

A rule group must be defined as a lookup (OKC_RULE_GROUP_DEF). You can create your own Rule Groups, but you are not supposed to create new Rules. Only Seeded Rules are supported by Oracle. To Assign Rules to Rule Groups, navigate to Service Contracts Manager Responsibility & go to Setup > Contract > Rules >

Define Rule Groups.

When you select a rule group in your contract, all rules of that group are automatically copied into your contract. Each rule may be optional or mandatory.

To access a rule from the authoring window, you must include the rule group in the category definition. You can include more than one rule group to a category.
