Before committing overrides to the Edit-List, they must first be tested. Before testing the rules, they must first be saved.
So, the sequence is as follows:
Add new overrides
Save Overrides
Test
Commit Changes
Click
Save Overrides
button, the following window will be displayed allowing the entry of some general comments about the rules added, removed or changed in this session.
Testing the overrides runs them through the Edit-List syntax checker. This checks for such things as duplicate rules and logical inconsistencies. If an error is found, it is displayed with a message similar to:
In this case, we have added a duplicate rule for WLM)WILLIAM.
Fix the error and re-test.
Once the overrides have been tested successfully, they can be committed. This is the time to make sure the rules are what is required, as once they are committed, it may be time consuming to remove them.
