Michael,

Thank you for the answer, but can you give me an example of how I might be importing the Function from Global Area.  I’m assuming I would go the package screen for V222 (and other packages) and would use the Advanced view to add an import statement, but I’m not sure I understand how to form this import statement.

Thanks

Dean

Global Area is a place for shared assets.

This said, however, you still need to import them from the Global Area into individual packages.

Think of the import as a symlink\shortcut to the shared asset.

I’m using Drools/Guvnor version 5.1.1.

In the Global Area of Guvnor, under functions, I’ve created a function called splitDiagnosis.

In another package, we’ll call it V222, I have a rule called LoadDiag.

In the Then section of the rule, I set the value of a field “=splitDiagnosis(diag,type)”

When run through our live software, the rule errors out because it evidently does not see the global area.  If the rule is in the local package, then it works properly, but I have dozens of packages that all need access to this function and I don’t want to keep copying it from one package to another.

I must be missing something to tell package V222 to include the global area.  Any thoughts?

Thank you,

Dean Whisnant
