  3. Select the usage that you want SAS Business Rules Manager to search for.

    As a condition term
    finds terms that are used only as condition terms (terms that have been added to the column or row headings of the decision table)
    As an action term
    finds terms that are used only as action terms (terms that have been added to the column or row headings of the decision table)
    In an expression
    finds terms only when they are used in rule expressions
  4. Click Search. If the search returns results, SAS Business Rules Manager displays all of the rule sets and versions in which it found the term.

Note: If a term is referenced implicitly in an expression, then selecting In an expression and searching for that term does not find it. For example, if you enter the expression +10 into the rule set editor for the term myterm, then the resulting expression for myterm is =myterm+10. Because the expression that you entered into the rule set editor did not explicitly reference myterm, the search was not successful.
