Canvas

Unlike a realtime decision, within which the workspace is used to list decision criteria, a decision scorecard’s canvas is used to list weighted realtime decisions.

When displayed initially, a scorecard’s canvas displays a message:

You can use the Add New Weighted Realtime Decision button to add the same to a decision scorecard’s canvas.  You can also add a weighted realtime decision by dragging a realtime decision from the toolbox and dropping it onto the canvas.

A weighted realtime decision has the following properties:

      Realtime Decision: provision of a realtime decision is mandatory.  You can populate the property using drag and drop, or by browsing.  When a realtime decision has been selected, you can open its latest version in the Rule Designer.  You can also Clear the selected realtime decision.  A realtime decision must have been saved to the RPI file system to be used in a scorecard.

      When: this dropdown field exposes values ‘Criteria met’ (the default) and ‘Criteria not met’.  It specifies whether to assign a score should the selected realtime decision’s criteria be met or not met, as required.

      Apply Weight: a mandatory decimal value.

      Actions: this menu gives access to a single Remove option, invocation of which removes the weighted realtime decision without display of an ‘Are You Sure?’ dialog.

A validation error is raised when a weighted realtime decision is configured with a realtime decision that uses the current scorecard (thereby creating a circular reference), or when the same realtime decision is included more than once in a weighted realtime decision list.

Note that it is mandatory for a scorecard to contain at least one weighted realtime decision.
