          Overview<\/h2><\/span>\n

          What’s the Rule<\/h3><\/span>\n

          * Rule is similar to Java methods:
          \n– can take input parameters
          \n– can return a value
          \n* Rule can be written in following languages:
          \n– XPRESS
          \n– XML Object
          \n– JavaScript
          \n* Rule can also reference and modify variables maintained by a form or workflow.
          \n– You can use localScope=”true”<\/em> to disallow this behavior.
          \n* Rule can be referenced wherever XPRESS is allowed:
          \n– Forms
          \n– Workflows
          \n– Roles: Use a role-assignment rule to dynamically assign owners and approvers to a role.
          \n– Active Sync: Use Process or Correction rules to control what happens when an Active Sync-enabled adapter detects changes to a resource account.
          \n– Reconciliation: Use special rule subtypes (such as confirmation and correlation rules) during reconciliation.
          \n* For moralization, multiple rules can be organized into a Rule Library<\/em> which is a single XML configuration object.<\/p>\n

          Returning Static Values<\/h3><\/span>\n

          * You can use XML Object syntax:<\/p>\n

          Referencing Variables<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Use <ref> expression<\/p>\n
          \r\n \r\n    \r\n       \r\n         global.firstname<\/ref> \r\n         0<\/i> \r\n         1<\/i> \r\n      <\/substr> \r\n      global.lastname<\/ref> \r\n      @example.com<\/s> \r\n   <\/concat> \r\n<\/Rule>\r\n<\/pre>\n
          Declare Rule Arguments<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Rule arguments:
          \n– promotes reuse
          \n– helps rule development
          \n* Use <RuleArgument><\/em> to declare rule arguments:
          \n– Use value <\/em>attribute to specify default value.<\/p>\n
          \r\n \r\n    \r\n    \r\n    \r\n      UserId<\/ref> \r\n      @<\/s> \r\n      location<\/ref> \r\n   <\/concat> \r\n<\/Rule>\r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Pass in rule argument values:<\/p>\n
          \r\n \r\n    \r\n    \r\n<\/rule>\r\n<\/pre>\n
          * You can lock argument default value with locked <\/em>attribute:<\/p>\n
          \r\n \r\n  The corporate domain name<\/Comments> \r\n<\/RuleArgument> \r\n<\/pre>\n
          Assign Values to External Variables in Rules<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Similar to assign values to class variables in Java classes
          \n* You can use following expressions to assign values:
          \n<setvar>
          \n<setlist>
          \n<putmap><\/em><\/p>\n
          Wrap JavaScript in Rules<\/h3><\/span>\n
