Finding rule dependencies

You can run predefined queries to find rules that can enable or disable another rule or ruleflows that can select a rule.

About this task

In Rule Designer, you can run predefined queries on rule dependencies. Rule Designer provides predefined queries so that you do not have to write the queries that enable you to search for rules that affect or are affected by other rules. You can also run a predefined query to find the ruleflows that select a given rule.

You can search for the following artifacts:

  • Rules that are affected by the execution of other rules

  • Rules that affect the execution of other rules

  • Ruleflows that can select a given rule
