Enables you to view rule inconsistencies for operations related to the selected items.
Data Window
Displays the rules with details of inconsistencies and the action to be taken.
Rule Name
The name of the rule as defined by the user. The same rule name can appear more than once if several inconsistencies exist for that rule.
Inconsistencies
Indicates the way in which the data is inconsistent with the rule for the specified item. The following example specifies an inconsistency for a rule whereby a 100hp motor must have a rated voltage of at least 400V:
Motor=100hp(M-A-1000):Rated Voltage(220V)>=(400V)
Where the components of the formula are as follows:
Component |
Value |
---|---|
Operand 1 |
Motor=100hp |
Item tag |
(M-A-1000) |
Property |
Rated Voltage |
Actual database value |
(1000V) |
Operator |
>= |
Operand 2 property / value |
(400V) |
In this case, the actual rated voltage for motor M-A-1000 is 220V, and so this value represents a rule inconsistency.
Action
Specifies the action that is required where there is an inconsistency. The actions can be:
Log
Records the rule inconsistency to a log file without notifying you. You can access the log file from Smart Electrical.
Warn
Prompts you to reject or accept the operation when a rule inconsistency is found. This action gives you flexibility in making an appropriate decision.
Reject
Automatically rejects the operation that you performed and notifies you about the rule inconsistency. This action prevents you from accepting any operation when the software detects an inconsistency.
Solutions
Displays the solutions that are available for the specific inconsistency. Only solutions consistent with the specific rule will be displayed. The following solutions are available if the operator is = (equal) Copy Rule:
Approve Inconsistency
Performs the operation, even though data values or relationships exist that are inconsistent with the rules. In the case of rule inconsistencies for which the action is specified as Warn, the software accepts the latest data values and saves them in the database.
Copy data from item1 to item2
Copies value from property from item 1 to item 2.
Copy data from item2 to item1
Copies value from property from item 2 to item 1.
Copy data from value to item1
Copies fixed value to the property in item 1.
Reject Operation
Rejects the operation on the item or relationship for which the software finds rule inconsistencies. In the case of rule inconsistencies for which the action is specified as Warn, the software does not save the data.
Accept Solutions
Performs the operation, according to the selected solution even though data values or relationships exist that are inconsistent with the rules.
Show Rule
Opens the Rule Properties dialog with read-only information showing details of the selected rule.
