SourceRule Settings
The data object specified in the input card defines what data is retrieved. The
SourceRule settings define how the data is retrieved.
To define input-specific data retrieval behavior, specify the SourceRule settings
for each input card. SourceRule settings specify what data to retrieve, where to
get it, how much to get, and what to do when an error occurs.
An input card represents an input source. The content of an input card is defined
with the CardName, TypeTree and Type settings. These settings define what
the data is, but do not specify how to retrieve the data. The Source,
Transaction, Retry, and FetchAs card settings are some of the SourceRule
settings that define how the data is retrieved for each input card.
