You can create rules to create Requests or Agreements using the ''Rules'' tile. For example, you can create a Rule for an Agreement to get the Supporting Documents auto attached at the predefined state. The user who is provided with administrative privileges can only create Rules from ''Rule'' tile.

With ICM, you can create Rules for Contract Types. You can create various types of Rules only for the published Contract Types.

1. '''Click''' ''Configuration''''' '''on ''My Dashboard''. The ''Configuration'' page opens.

2. '''Click''' ''Rule''''' '''on the ''Configuration'' page. The ''Rules'' page opens.

 

The ''Create Rule'' page consists of the following  tabs:

1. '''Select''' the Contract Type for which you want to create a Rule in the ''Contract Type'' list.

2. '''Type''' a name of the rule in the ''Rule Name'' box.

3. '''Type''' a description for the rule in the ''Rule Description'' box.

4. '''Select''' the type of the rule in the ''Rule Type ''from the ''Rule Type'' list. 

 

For each type of a Rule, you need to select an approver role from the drop-down options.

:If you select the Rule Type as ''Approval Rule'', the ''Team Role'' field is displayed.&nbsp;You can configure multiple approval rule sets, thus enabling greater flexibility in creating approval rules<br/> '''Select''' the ''appropriate role of an approver'' from the following list of team roles:  

 

*Approver  

*Deviation Approver  

*External Signatory  

*Internal Signatory  

*Reviewer  

 

*Clause Assembly: To build&nbsp;a Rule that defines the conditions in which a specific clause will open in an Agreement.  

*Contract Type Selection: To build&nbsp;a Rule that defines the conditions in which a specific contract type will be selected while creating an Agreement.  

*Dynamic Association: To build a Rule that defines the conditions in which a specific Agreement/Associated Document will be selected while creating an Agreement.  

*Dynamic Attribute: To build&nbsp;a Rule that defines the conditions in which a specific attribute will open while creating an Agreement.  

*Set Attribute Value: Define the value of the attribute.  

*Template Selection: To build&nbsp;a Rule that defines the conditions in which a specific template will be selected while creating an Agreement.  

<div class="note-box">'''Note''':&nbsp;The types of rules that are displayed&nbsp;in the list vary according to the type of the contract you select in the ''Contract Type'' list.</div>  

5.&nbsp;'''Click''' ''Next''. The ''Build'' tab opens.

 

*Builder: You can add a Rule in this pane.  

*Validate: You can type the information that is used to validate the Rule you create.  

'''Builder'''<br/> To add a Rule:

1.&nbsp;'''Click''' ''Add Rule''.

3. Next to the icon , in the''Select Value'' field select the appropriate attribute from the list provided:

&nbsp;4. Based on the attribute you have selected, select appropriate value in the very next ''Select Value'' field from the list provided:

:*Has A Value:&nbsp;the Rule is satisfied as long as the attribute has some value. This includes all Data Types and&nbsp;system-defined Attributes such that Rules can be set up for an Attribute having any value. For example, you want to set up a Rule so that an Approver John Doe should approve the Contract if a discount is applicable to it, irrespective of the value of the discount. Then, user can add a Rule using the Has A Value condition such that John Doe is added as an Approver if the discount has a value of 5%, 10% or whatever value is desired. For better understanding, please refer to the next section on Has A Value condition.

Once selected, '''enter''' an appropriate value in the ''Enter Value'' field.

5.&nbsp;'''Click'''&nbsp;the Add icon&nbsp;to add another condition.

6.&nbsp;'''Click''' {} to add another group of conditions. When you add a group, all the conditions in the group should be fulfilled to satisfy the rule.

7. Under ''Actions'', in the ''Select Action'' list, select from the list actions.

8.&nbsp;'''Select''' actions consequent to the conditions you have set, and then enter their value. For example, under ''Conditions'', if you select ''Created By Equals x User'', then under ''Actions'' you may select ''Require Approval From Any'', and then type appropriate value. that is if the user x creates an Agreement using the selected Contract Type, then it will require approval from any of the selected approvers.

9.&nbsp;'''Type''' the number of approvers required in the ''MinimumApprovers'' text box, and then '''type''' appropriate ''Step Number'' for those Approvers. The Agreement approval process flows sequentially according to the ''Step Number'' of the approver. When Approvers are defined based on the user attribute, the Administrator can specify a minimum number of approvals required for an Agreement before it can move to the next step in the workflow. As a result, not all Approvers configured for the specific user attribute are required&nbsp;to approve the Agreement.

=== Subset Of operator ===

With a ''Subset of'' operator,&nbsp;user can configure conditions for power sets (i.e. cases where the user wants a Rule to be executed only if the entity field contains a subset of the configured values). This new operator, ''Subset of'', which is applicable to only multiselect lookup supports evaluation of string, number, user, percentage and email data types only.

Verify the summary of the rule, and then '''click&nbsp;'''''Create''.&nbsp;

 

The ''Rule created successfully''&nbsp;message is displayed. The Rule is displayed in the Rule&nbsp;list of the specific Contract Type.

ICM allows you to set the Rules based on the total number of selected values (count of selected values) in multi-select type Attributes.

 

 

*ICM also supports Masterdata value options in the''Actions'' section of Rules, so that you can define Rules without having the Cascade Attribute on the Contract Type where the Rule is being written. For example, if multiple signatories are part of a Lookup Masterdata record, we can now define the Rule (such as – ''Select User From Attribute'') on the Masterdata record itself and use them in the Rule directly, instead of defining Cascade Lookup Attributes in the Agreement. This drastically reduces the time and effort to create and maintain a large number of Attributes for Agreement Contract Types.  

<div class="image-green-border">[[File:Rule view.PNG|760px|RTENOTITLE]]</div>  

Rules can be written for individual attributes of an Association (as done for parent Contract Types). All attributes for Associations are available for the given Rule conditions. You can search selected values on an Agreement or an Associated Document.&nbsp;Depending on the type of the attribute, standard operators are applicable. For example, ''Contains, Starts With, Equals, Greater Than'', and so on.

Rules can also accommodate the count of the Associations so that you can add Clauses based on the count of the Associations. If you ''Select All'' or ''Select Any'', there is no need to specify the count of the Associations to satisfy the rule. However, when selecting the option ''Select Count'', you need to specify the number of Associations, irrespective of the attribute value, that should meet the condition and satisfy the Rule. This rule applies to any type of Association, parent/child or peer.

*''Select All'':&nbsp;If all the Associations satisfy the condition  

*''Select Any'':&nbsp;If any Association satisfies the condition  

*''Select Count'': If the number of Associations specified&nbsp;satisfy the condition  

<div class="image-green-border">[[File:Multiparty-Rules1.PNG|760px|Multiparty Rules]]</div>  

Rules can accommodate the count of the Associations, besides ''Select All'' and ''Select Any ''Conditions.&nbsp;If you ''Select All'' or ''Select Any'', there is no need to specify the count of the Associations to satisfy the Rule. However, when you ''Select Count'', then you need to specify the number of Associations, irrespective of the attribute value, that should meet the condition and satisfy the Rule.

<div class="image-green-border">[[File:Multiparty-Rules2.PNG|760px|Multiparty Rules - Select Count]]</div>  

3. If the value taken from the Agreement above was ''Acme Inc''. for the first instance, then it will be displayed as shown in the figure after Edit or Publish.

If checked, the Rule stays locked for the other users.  

*Copy:&nbsp;To copy the selected Rule for another Contract Type.&nbsp;In the&nbsp;''Copy Rule''&nbsp;dialog box, '''select'''&nbsp;Contract Type, '''type''' the Rule name and then&nbsp;'''click'''&nbsp;''Copy''. The Rule becomes applicable for another Contract Type that you selected.

== Create an Event Rule ==

 

With ICM, you can define an Event Rule for a Contract Request, Agreement, and an Associated Document. The Event Rule helps you to setup a condition that triggers when that particular event occurs.
