Creating a Wizard Rule

On the

Design

tab, click the

Rules

view.

From the

Actions

menu in the top-right corner of the view, select

New Wizard Rule

The

New Wizard Rule

dialog box appears.

In the

Details

section, enter the name and description for the rule.

Enter a unique name for the rule that clearly distinguishes it from all other rules. Do not name the rule using leading hyphens or numbers. Optionally, enter a description of the rule that clearly states the purpose of the rule.

In the

Topics and Events

section, click

Add Topics

, and then select the topic or data source that you want to process.

Here, you can add the event topics on which to base the rule and the number of occurrences required to activate the rule.

In the

Events Processed At a Time

column, specify how many events you want processed at a time.

If the count is greater than 1, additional options appear, and you must specify how you want the events processed.

Choose from the following options about how you would want to process the event:

Process Events arrived anytime

Process Events within

. Specify the time frame in which events must occur for the rule to activate. For example, you can specify whether a specific symbol must be identified in a Stock topic event within a specific number of hours.

In the

Conditions

section, enter the conditions for the rule.

Conditions are the parts of a rule that define the business logic used to process events to find meaningful patterns and information. Each condition is made up of a left-side operand and a right-side operand.

In the

Responses

section, enter the response for the rule.

You select the responses to apply to the rule. More than one response can be referenced in a single rule. You can also reference specific properties of an event in your responses.

When you select a Response to use in a Rule, you can accept the default parameters and values contained in the response or specify new ones here. For example, you can specify a new email address for an email response. Values defined here will override the default values in the original response.

If you do not have the dependent objects for the rule, you can create the objects using the workspace on the left hand side of the Wizard Rule dialog box.

If you do not have the related responses for the wizard rule, create the responses. For information on how to create a response, see Creating a Response.

If you do not have the related topic for the wizard rule, create the topic. For information on how to create a topic, see Creating a Topic.
