Working with an Effectivity
Use
You create an effectivity to specify a time period during which a rule should be effective while engine execution. By assigning effectivity to a rule, you can control the period of rule execution.
While creating an effectivity, you can specify the following:
-
Date Period
-
Days
-
Time
-
Discrete Dates
Example
Rule A is effective every Wednesday , Saturday and Sunday from 2009-09-19T10:03:41 to 2009-09-30T10:03:44 but not on 2008-09-03
2009-09-28 is a discrete date.
You can assign effectivity only to if-then rules.
This section describes the tasks you perform with an effectivity.
