An else in a rule doesn't make sense, because the LHS can be false for any number of reasons, in your example:<br>
- no employee at all<br>
- an employee not in state MH<br>
<br>If you want this to be in a single rule you'll have to have only one action that's executed when the LHS matches.<br><br>You know that you can code any RHS actions in a DRL function (or a Java static or non-static method) and call these from different RHS?<br>
<br>But if you are hell-bent on doing it in a single rule, use a Java if statement on the RHS.<br><br>-W <br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/9/9 Kripa Nathwani <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Kripa.Nathwani@lntinfotech.com">Kripa.Nathwani@lntinfotech.com</a>></span><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I need to implement a functionality as follows:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If an employee belongs to a particular state(MH) for a particular month(Feb) then take an action.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If an employee belongs to the same state(MH) but for different month (non Feb) then take another action.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I can implement it using two different rules(Feb rule and nonFeb rule). BUT if I want to implement it using a single rule is there any provision for the same in Drools?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Similar to an if-then-else statement in java.</p>
