Overriding rules?

[Rem]

Is there some way to override one rule with another?

I have ten different rules which checks for certain times and makes calculations when modifying or creating a BO. Now I would like all of these to be overrided with a singel other rule if some conditions are true.

In old fashioned programming it would look like this:

start
If singelcondition is true goto singelrule
Rule1
Rule2
...
Rule10

:singelrule
Singlerule
end

But how do I do this in Aware? The only thing I can think of is to include the singlecondition in everyone of the ten rules ans thus making them not true. This seems a bit redundant to me. Isn´t there any other way?

Rem,

perhaps using rule priority settings?

Rem,

You can also set a yes/no attribute in your BO & use that in your various rules. Let's say the attribute is BO.Override.

Rules 1-10 may include a condition of BO.Override='No' while Rule 11 may include a condition of BO.Override='Yes'. You would have a rule to set BO.Override to 'Yes' or 'No' depending on the various conditions.

Make sense?

No, sorry, getting tired now.

But this means modifying every one of the ten rules, right?

Rem,

Yes, it means simply putting 1 more condition line in each rule + adding one new rule to the set the flag.
