You can use the &DCM_USE_LATEST_VERSION and either the &DCM_RULEFLOW_NAME or &DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME
macro variable to ensure that when a
rule flow is run, the latest version of the rule flow is always used. If you specify both &DCM_RULEFLOW_NAME
and &DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME, then the name specified by &DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME
is used.
For &DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME, specify the name of the published rule flow and the
identification number of the rule flow. You can find the published name and
identification number in the
Name column of the rule flow
History page.
For example:
%let DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME=published_flow_name(ID_number);
Note: If you specify &DCM_RULEFLOW_NAME
and SAS Business Rules Manager finds multiple rule flows that
match the specified name, it writes an error message in the SAS log,
and the rule flow is not executed. If you encounter this issue, specify
the specific rule flow by using &DCM_DEPLOYED_RULEFLOW_NAME.
Define these macro variables
in preprocessing code such as the
Preprocessing Code section of a
rule flow test or in the
Precode section
of the
Precode and Postcode tab in SAS Data
Integration Studio. Define these variables before calling the %BRM_RULE_FLOW
macro. For example:
%let DCM_USE_LATEST_VERSION=Y;
%let DCM_RULEFLOW_NAME=rule_flow_name;
Note: SAS Data Integration Studio
uses the latest version of the rule flow that matches the variable
mappings in the Business Rules transformation. SAS Business Rules Manager
writes a note in the SAS log that states which version was selected.
