Bypassing Business Rules
You want to be able to initially show some or all business rule failures but only some business rule failures should prevent the workflow process from continuing or completing.
Example Use Case 1
You want to check that certain attributes are filled in (e.g. Material), but it’s ok if the attributes are blank but the life cycle state check must pass.
Example Use Case 2
You have requirements that the Material and Weight attributes have to be filled in for parts. The part Number needs to start with PTC- and have a length of ten. The part attributes such as Finish and Description should be filled, but if they are blank, you should only get a warning.
This document assumes you have customized business rule sets and rules defined that you would like to run as part of the workflow process.
