A rule set is a collection of property rules that determine file property behavior during a copy operation.
Important: This topic is intended for Vault 2015 R2 users. Vault 2015 users should see the original Copy Design help topics.
Rule sets can be used to:
- Assign a file to a category
- Map file properties
- Clear or reset file properties
During a copy operation, only one rule set can be applied to the selected data set. For this reason, a rule set can contain a number of rules that determine the settings of multiple file types based on extension, properties, or use.
Default Rule Sets
An out-of-the-box default rule set is provided as the default rule set. The default rule set is configured to function similar to the old copy design by:
- Using the part number as a new file name
- Removing iLogic rules
- Resetting the category of the file so that the new file category assignment rules are applied.
Note: The default rule set cannot be modified or deleted.
Defining Rule Sets
A rule set contains one or more rules. Each rule is defined by one or more conditions that, if met, assigns certain file properties and behavior settings to the destination files.
Important: If a rule has more than one condition, all conditions must be met for the resulting property behavior to be applied.
Rules are created, edited, and deleted on the Define Rule Set dialog.
See Rules, Conditions, and Property Behavior for more information about the Define Rule Set interface.
