The rule builder was enhanced and now includes a graphical user interface. The rule builder is also now available for real-time offer management. The rule builder's new graphical user interface, the rule flow environment, provides flowchart-style tools and drag-and-drop capability. The existing method of creating rules using the rule table is still available; the rule flow environment has been added as an alternative. You should choose a rule environment before you start creating the rule, as you cannot switch between them after you have saved the rule.
The rule builder is available for loyalty management and real-time offer management.
Note: Users who do not have modification rights for the rule still have display rights for the rule flow environment.
For more information, see Rule Builder.
