After a Rule Set is created, you can add Rules to it. The Rule Set can then be invoked as an action from another Rule, allowing a single Rule Set to be used in multiple contexts.

Rule Set Properties
- Name - The name of the Rule Set--used to reference when invoked from other Rules or from a Process.
- Enabled - Whether or not the Rule Set is currently in force. (Disable a Rule Set to temporarily deactivate it, without deleting it.)
- Return Type
- None
- The default type.
- All Rules in the rule set are evaluated, and all actions dictated by those rules are executed.
- Process Decision Value
- A rule set with this return type creates a process value that can be tested in a Process Model#Decision Switch
- When a Rule Set has this return type, rules added to it have another possible action: Return Process Decision Value
- The returned value is stored in a process variable named Rule Value.
- The rule to return a value halts the rule engine. The value is returned, and no other rules are evaluated.
- Process Step Owner
- Return a User, Team, or Role identifier.
- A Rule Set with this return type can be used to specify the owner of a user task or approval step in a Process.
- When a Rule Set has this return type, rules added to it have another possible action: Return Step Owner
- When you select that action, you can either specify a Role or select one of the fields in the record that designates a User.
- The rule to return a value halts the rule engine. The value is returned, and no other rules are evaluated.
- Description - Write a descriptive summary here.
Rule Set Example
Here's a sample Rule Set that is intended to determine the owner for a case record:
