To create a Rulesheet:

  1. Choose File > New > Rulesheet from the menubar or click the down arrow next to the New icon on the toolbar and select Rulesheet. Either method will launch the Create a New Rulesheet wizard.
    The Create New Rulesheet dialog opens.

  2. Highlight the Rule Project you would like to associate the new Rulesheet with in the list (or enter it manually in the Enter or select parent folder entry area.
  3. Enter a file name for the Rulesheet in the File name: entry area.
    Note: The Advanced options are not relevant to Corticon and should not be used.
  4. Click Next to continue.
    Figure 1. The Create New Rulesheet Wizard window
    Note: The dialog only lists the Vocabularies for the parent project. This prevents you from creating cross-project assets. Do not create cross-project assets.
  5. Select the Vocabulary with which to associate the Rulesheet. A Rulesheet can only be associated with one Vocabulary. In this example, we expanded the Example_Project folder and chose the Cargo.ecore file we created earlier. As you create additional Vocabulary files within a Rule Project, they become available for selection from this list.
    You must have a Vocabulary within a Rule Project to create a Rulesheet.
  6. Click Finish.
    Your new Rulesheet is now listed in the Project Explorer window and in a new Editor window with a tab of the given name and the .ers extension. The Rulesheet menubar and toolbar replace the Vocabulary menubar and toolbar while the Rulesheet is the active window. You can now model your rules.
