View Rules and Usage

The Rules Administration page displays all rules that have been applied to one or more devices and/or wells.  From this page the user can view and manage all aspects of rule creation and maintenance.  

Filter Rules

Two mechanisms are available to assist the user when trying to locate rules in the list:

• Rule Type - This drop down may be used to show only Diagnostic rules, Data Quality rules or All rules.  The default value is All.
• Filter by Name - Optionally, enter partial or full text of any rule name to display only the matching entries.  This can be helpful when scrolling through dozens or hundreds of items to find the desired rules. 

View Usage

Each rule contains a Usage link which indicates the total number of devices and wells to which the rule has been applied.  This Usage link may be expanded to view the details of the associated items:

• Devices - Shows the number of devices to which the rule is applied, and may be expanded to see the list of specific devices.  Clicking the device will open the Device Details page.
• Wells - Shows the number of wells to which the rule is applied, and may be expanded to see the list of specific wells.  Clicking a well will open the Well Details page.
