immediately accessible by a message handler using this ruleset. The
RMS : Message Group Rules Maintenance panel reappears, and a message
confirms the addition of the new group rule.
5. To make rule management easier, you should always add comments to describe a
new rule as described in “Maintaining Comments” in Section 6. You may also
want to update the comments on the ruleset itself.
Note For the message group rule to be effective, you must also ensure the following:
Each rule member must be registered through page 5 of the message action rule definition panels.
See “Registering the Message Action Rule as a Member of a Message Group Rule” earlier in this
section.
The control options of the ruleset must allow group rules and the features you specified to be
serviced. You can enable the group rules and the features using the RMS : Control Options
Definition—Run Parms panel. See “Enabling or Disabling Ruleset Features” earlier in this section.
Naming the Message Group
Rule
