Special actions menu
The Decision Table page has a Special actions menu to edit the values in a decision table or modify the structure and variables of a template.
The Special actions menu is available for any field that has the
Special actions icon next to it when a decision table is in the edit mode.
Clicking the Special actions icon for the field opens a list of available
options for the field. The following table lists the possible options.
Note: Reordering the columns
or rows only affects the visual presentation of the table and has no effect on the order in which
the conditions and actions are processed.
