Global rules
Access through: Rules > Definitions > Global rules
Global rules are a part of the rules feature in Snow Optimizer for SAP® Software. As a building block for rule sets, you can create, change, and copy global rules.
Description
Global rules are based on data of all users and applied to consolidated results of local rules. They have either an absolute effect on these results by entering an upper license threshold or a relative effect by entering a maximum percentage. These values are usually part of a contract in terms of proportional license type distribution.
Before you can use a global rule in a rule set, you must activate the local rule. Upon activation, the global rule is checked for errors, saved, and marked as ready to use.
Global rules are always executed after local rules.
