Object Initialization Rules Table

Specialized Administration > Tailoring Business Objects > Object Initialization Rules Administration > Working with Object Initialization Rules > Object Initialization Rules Table

The Object Initialization Rules table lists the rules created in the current context and the rules created in all parent contexts. You can perform actions on the rules listed in the table. The #ObjRuleRef/Actions include actions that can be applied to multiple rules and actions for one rule.

Using the icons at the top of the table, you can perform the following activities:

• Create a rule.

• Download a composite rule.

• Delete a rule.

• Search the content of the table for a specified set of characters or numbers using the search field at the top of the table. For more information, see Using Tables.

The following table lists the columns in the Object Initialization Rules table:

Column	Description
Name	Specifies the name entered for the rule. The combination of the name and object type specifies a unique rule in the current context. The display name of the rule is truncated to the corresponding length set by the Truncate Display Names preference. Users can use the Preferences utility from the Utilities page on the Home tab to set this preference. Locate the preference and check the value. If no value set, then there is no truncation; the full name is shown in the Object Initialization Rules table.
Type	The object type display name.
Enabled	Specifies whether the rule is enabled. Only enabled rules are used by the Windchill solution to determine default values.
Context	Identifies the context in which the rule was created.

Actions

The following actions may be available in the Object Initialization Rules table using the right-click actions menu for each row.

Action	Description
Delete	Deletes the rule from the table in the current context. By deleting a rule, it is removed from the Windchill database so it is not available for use. This action is also available at the top of the table and can be applied to multiple rules.
Enable	Enables the rule. This action is only available when the rule is disabled. When you enable a rule, it is automatically used when objects of the specified object type are created.
Disable	Disables the rule. This action is only available when the rule is enabled. When you disable a rule, it is no longer used when objects of the specified object type are created.
Edit	Opens a window from which you can edit the rule.
Download	Opens a window from which you can download the XML document containing the rule.
