I am new to drools. I've searched in this forum as well as in the documentation but I havent found any solution to the situation that I am facing I have a Claim object that has 1 date member variable called claimRequestDate I want to achieve a rule that if the claimRequestDate is 65 days old from now then fire that rule I want to achieve like if (now - claimRequestDate) > 65 then fire the rule I want the "65" number to be in the rule data so that the business analyst can change it at will Has anyone tried this? -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Date-Condition-in-Dec...

lets say instead of =now() I am using a user-specified date(usd). I want to calculate (usd - claimRequestDate) in the Condition something like <usd - ClaimREquestDate) > "$param" I the data for that condition I want to put an integer say 65 - the rule should fire when the condition is met -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Date-Condition-in-Dec...

It was suggested to have the usd as a fact. You could write UserParams( $usd: usd ) Claim( claimRequestDate before[65d] $usd ) This is easy to parameterize in a spreadsheet. The data for the UserParams fact could be defined in a special cell in the spreadsheet. A high-salience rule could be dedicated to its creation and insertion. -W On 24 February 2011 12:08, sdinoo <sdinoo(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > > lets say instead of =now() I am using a user-specified date(usd).
