Using Quick Copy

Use Quick Copy to make a copy of a rule that will replace the existing one on a specified date.

For example, suppose that we have an "isSeniorCitizen" rule. Currently a person is considered a senior citizen if they are 62 years of age or older. Starting on January 1, 2002, we are going to change this to 65. Use Quick Copy to specify the new date, and change the age from 62 to 65. The current rule will be set to expire on the same date that the new rule will take effect with the new senior citizen age defined as 65.

Use Quick Copy from the Rule Browser or Search Results windows.

  1. Select the rules you want to Quick Copy.
  2. From the main menu, click Edit > Quick Copy.
  3. In the Quick Copy window, specify how the copy will differ from the original as follows:
  4. Click OK to finish.

Note: The Quick Copy function should only be used for simple changes, and is not intended to be used in all cases.
