Types of Business Rules Supported by Code Effects

Code Effects business rules engine supports two types of business rules: evaluation type and execution type. Even though each type serves a different purpose, evaluation of a rule of any type is done in the same way.

Rules of both types can be created using the Rule Editor.

You can choose to let rule authors use only evaluation type, or both evaluation and execution type rules, by setting the value of the CodeEffects.Rule.Web.RuleEditor.Mode property to one of the members of the CodeEffects.Rule.Common.RuleType enumerator.

The evaluation type rules are unique because they can also be used as reusable rules and as data filters.
