Rules

Rules specify how your data is loaded into Visier.

Sometimes, data must be changed after it's been loaded in Visier, for example, an incorrect value in the source data or an incompatible data format. Rules allow you to write unique formulas that massage the data to work correctly in Visier.

You can create the following types of rules:

  • Business rule: Apply transformations to the data, such as adding, removing, or editing events in the event stream. For more information, see Business Rules.
  • System rule: Run logical scenarios against data that isn't logical in its current state, such as adjacent terminations or incorrect parent-child hierarchies. For more information, see System Rules.
  • Multi-subject rule: Specify validations and transformations against more than one subject, such as adjusting the validity of data with validity ranges. Multi-subject rules run after business and system rules, so the data has already been transformed or logically configured. For more information, see Multi-Subject Rules.
