The following instructions describe how to assign a rule segment at the same time as you create a rule. You can also assign
a segment after creating a rule.
In the Source pane, select the segment you want to assign to a business rule. In the Rules pane, select the business function
or rule set (if any) for the new rule, then choose
Create Rule in the
Rules menu. The Create Business Rule dialog opens.
Tip: You can select a code segment as construct or text. Select a segment as text when you want to select either more or less code
than a construct contains. To select a segment as text, click-and-drag from the first line of the segment to the last line
of the segment. The segment is highlighted in blue. To select a segment as construct, click inside the construct in the Source
pane. The segment is highlighted in yellow.

function, click
