Auto Update Rules view

Configuration Services Auto Update Rules Auto Update Rules view

The Auto Update Rules view displays the auto update rules that exist at the current scope level. An auto update rule enables you to update selected fields, add/release a hold, and grant/cancel a permission for an entity when the event associated with the auto update rule occurs.

The auto update rule is especially useful for built-in event types for which you cannot edit the 'Is Updated' effect. For more information on adding effects for an event type, see Effect form (on page 1).

By default the auto update rule applies to all entities that are of the target entity type for the event type selected. For example, if you select the UNIT_DISCH event, the target entities are all units that are discharged. You can add filter criteria in the auto update rule to define a subset of the target entities for the target entity type, such as only units with a category of import.

For more information, see Auto Update Rule form (on page 1).

You can add auto update rules, and edit or delete existing auto update rules from this view.

In addition, you can use the Actions menu to:

• Recover Obsolete (on page 1): Recover deleted auto update rules.

• Purge (on page 1): Purge auto update rules.

• Copy Reference Set: Copy auto update rules from another entity set.
