Now it is time to test the rule set and make sure that it is working correctly. To avoid having to wait for the scheduled time the Debugger will be used to step through the Timer (Scheduled) action.
- Save and close the rule set.
- Enable the rule set in system environment.
- In Rule Set Manager, select the rule set.
- From the File menu, select the Debug option.
- In Rule Debugger, in the Rule Set Execution History list, select the currently running instance, if it is not already selected.
- To force the Timer (Scheduled) action to execute immediately, from the File menu, select the Go option. The rule set proceeds to the Split action where there is an automatic breakpoint.
- To clear all the breakpoints, from the File menu, select Remove All Breakpoints.
- To step through the rule set, from the File menu, select the Step All option repeatedly or select the Go option to have the rule set run to completion.
- Confirm that the report e-mail is sent and that the content of the report file is re-initialized.
Important: To stop an infinitely repeating rule set you must use the Stop All Processing option in Rule Set Manager. If you only disable the rule set, it will not stop—the rule chain will be executed to its final step, which will result in it being re-enabled.
Important: If it appears as if a concurrency limiter is deadlocked because none of the Limit Concurrency action instances that are using that limiter are proceeding, perform the Deadlock procedure. For more information about the Deadlock procedure, see the Limiting Rule Set concurrency section in the Prinergy Connect Workflow 6.1 Rules-Based Automation User Guide.
