Add and Remove Rules
When you open the Rule Composer for a Business Task, all Business Rules currently linked to that task are already listed in the Rule Statements table. You can add further rules that are available in the Browser window, or remove a rule from the table that is no longer applicable to the task.
You do not create or delete the rules themselves in the Rule Composer.
