I was initially using two lists making them global, and it was working for<br>me, but then i read <br><br>"Globals are not designed to share data between rules and they should never<br>be used for that purpose. Rules always reason and react to the working<br>memory state, so if you want to pass data from rule to rule, assert the data<br>as facts into the working memory."<br><br>So, thought might be somewhere, an issue can arise and changed the global<br>facts.<br><br>Thanks,<br>AA<br><br><br><br>--<br>View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Inserting-Different-Objects-Of-Same-Class-tp4020971p4020981.html<br>Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at <a target="_blank" href="http://nabble.com/">Nabble.com</a>.<br>_______________________________________________<br>rules-users mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:rules-users@lists.jboss.org" href="mailto:rules-users@lists.jboss.org">rules-users@lists.jboss.org</a><br><a
