Deleting Rules

Signature Rules can be deleted, if they want to be removed or undone.

NOTE: Resolving Rules is different from deletion (moves it to a Fixed/Wontfix state).
For most scenarios, Resolve should be used instead of Delete.

What happens when a Rule is deleted?

When deleting a Rule in Simscope:

  • Jobs get unassigned and moved back to New State.
  • Jobs get re-run against all other active Signature rules, in Priority Order.
  • If no rules match, the job stays in New state.
