Thank you,
That sounds like a good idea if we could automatically fix the data or the rules were more fatal instead of warn/error level, but in our case it will require some human intervention and I don't think we will want to stop everything until it gets fixed. I will keep this in mind if we run into any real critical errors though.

Subject: Re: [rules-users] Common Practices for warning or debug rules/messages

Hi, I think this is the best use case for agenda-groups + auto-focus... i.e., you add your rules to your kbase, and the rules remain there and will not fire, unless an extraordinary condition is detected, in which case the auto-focus will trigger, "pausing" the execution of the other rules to do whatever is necessary to handle the extraordinary condition. After it is fixed, the processing resumes with the regular rules.

Not sure if that is what you are looking for, but hope it helps.

Hi,
I'm working on a system that has a large number of rules and we are
getting to the point where we think it would be useful to have some 'debug'
or 'warning' type rules (for lack of a better word). The warning rules
would be rules that would signal to us that something is wrong with the
underlying data and would require someone to go in and fix something. I was
wondering if there are some standard practice as to how to write, maintain,
format... these rules. I can think of a couple of ways to do this but I
would like the communities opinion. We would also like the ability to turn
on/off these debug or warning rules easily while the rest of the system
keeps on processing.

Thank you,
Wendy
