A rule can be used in more than one zone and in more than one operation set.

Note: Rules belong to the reservoir in the current network, not to a zone or to an operation set. So, when you see a rule in a zone, it is a reference to the rule, NOT a copy of the rule. Thus, a change to a rule in a zone carries through all operation sets and zones that use that rule in the current Network.

To add a rule that you have already created to a zone:

  • Right-click on the zone you want to add the rule to and select Use Existing Rule… from the context menu. The Select Existing Rule dialog will open ("Figure: Select Existing Rule").

    Figure: Select Existing Rule


  • Select the rule you want to add from the white rows in the table. The grey rows in the table are rules that are already being used in the current zone.
  • Click OK to add the rule and close the Select Existing Rule dialog. (Cancel will close the dialog without adding a rule to the zone.)
  • The selected rule will appear at the bottom of the list of rules in the selected zone. See "Prioritizing Rules" for instructions on prioritizing rules.

To add a rule to all zones in the current operation set:

  • Follow the instructions above but place a checkmark in the Add Rule to All Zones checkbox before clicking OK in the Select Existing Rule dialog.

If you have a rule in one zone that you want to add to all zones in the current operation set:

  • Right-click on the rule and select Add Rule to All Zones from the rule's context menu.
