Creating or Modifying a Rule Set

  1. Go to Designer > Case Types > {case type} > Rule Sets
  2. Click [New Rule Set], or visit an existing one
  3. Fill in the Rule Set properties, below
  4. Click [Save]

Rule Set Properties

  • Title - The title you'll see when referencing the Rule Set in the ServiceDesk interface.
  • Name - The name used by programmers. A default version of the name is created from the title, but it can be edited, if desired.
  • Enabled - Whether or not the Rule Set is currently in force. (Disable a Rule Set to temporarily deactivate it, without deleting it.)
  • Use for Inbound Emails - The rules will operate on incoming email messages. (Email fields like To and Subject will be available for processing.)

  • Return Type - If the Rule Set will return a value, specify the type of value -- Boolean (true/false), Number, String, Date, a User/Role, or None.
  • Description - Write a descriptive summary here.
