How to define a rule

Most business rules are evaluated when a particular business object is created or modified and therefore most rules are attached to business objects. Some rules may also be attached to notifications (they are evaluated when a notification is created or received) or to timer events (scheduling rules). A rule consists of a condition (which is optional) and actions. To define a rule you need to specify these conditions and actions using the Rule Language. To make this task simpler Aware IM provides the Context Assistant, which prompts you for the right actions and conditional expressions to use when defining a rule. You can also use the information provided in the Aware IM Rule Language Reference section.
