This section shows the versions that hold the rules information after they are saved in Rules Designer GUI.

EB.RULES

EB.RULES is a system maintained file, which holds the versions of each rules created in the Rules Designer GUI. Whenever a rule is changed and saved, the version or date of it is written in this file.

EB.RULES.VERSION

When a rule is saved in the GUI, a record is written in the EB.RULES.VERSION file. If a rule is edited on a different day to its original rule date, then a new rule record is created with the current date as the new version number. This ensures rules versioning and allows calling of specific version of rules wherever required.

In EB.RULES.VERSION, you can view the ARC or Temenos Transact output which the rules engine produces upon evaluation of a business rule in XML format.

EB.RULES.HIERARCHY

When a rule is saved, a record is written with a field in EB.RULES.HIERARCHY. This field holds a chain of all the nested rule keys and the nested rules.

This ensures rules versioning and helps you to understand how the changing of one rule may affect the processing of other rules. For example, if you update a rule to add a new context, then you also need to update all its associated rules to ensure the necessary data is available to run the rule.
