Michael Neale commented on JBRULES-1121:
----------------------------------------

I have not been able to reproduce it. If you type "=" as the first character in the text box (talking about "then" of course) then it WILL let you put in numbers (or should). If not, then it is a bug (and we should log it as such). Can you provide more details on this?

Yes I like your idea of the "literal/formula" thing similar to the "when" part (but we want to keep it simple - as most of the time it is literal values or calculations).

>             Project: JBoss Rules
>          Issue Type: Feature Request
>      Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) 
>          Components: Eclipse IDE, drools-brms
>    Affects Versions:  4.0.0.GA
>         Environment: drools-jbrms stand alone and Eclipse drools-4.0.0 
>            Reporter: sreeni sabapathy
>         Assigned To: Michael Neale
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: FUTURE

>   Original Estimate: 10 minutes
>  Remaining Estimate: 10 minutes

> In the drools-jbrms standalone and even in the eclipse plugin version of "New guided drl file"
> the "then" part of the rule has the limitation of assigning the fixed value to the fact's variable.
> But in many condition the the value of the variable depends upon the value of another variable.
> I have taken  a simple example for explanation.
> For calcluating simple interest
> SI = P*T*R/100
> Now in the rule file if the 
> "when" condition as the check of " Calcluation type (simple ineterst or compound interest)"
> "then" part having SI, 
> At the present drool-jbrms definition the 
> "then" part has SI = text field.
> But my requirement is to look up the class variable "principle", "Time" and the "Rate" and then calculate, not just 
> assign some fixed values.
> In a simple sentence I would appreciate if the drools- jbrms has the options related to  "when" in the "then" part of the rule also.
