Question
Need Date type Circumstance clarification
Hi,
This is just a clarification question on circumstance. When I create two circumstance specialized rules with start and end dates, one from April to September and other from June to August in the same version, then for July time period which one will be picked?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Swarnendu , thank you for the reply but could you please give me the reason?
Hello,
I would look at the generated java. I think it will probably depend on which you create first (just a guess). What will happen is you'll get code along the lines of...
if(circumstance1 == true)
{
circumstance1 version
}
else if(circumstance2==true)
{
circumstance2 version
}
else
{
base version
}
Since both circumstances would evaluate to true, the first one in the code (and I'm not sure how the code generation orders things, though I expect we don't make any promises either way) will win.
Thanks,
Mike
Thanks Mike for the clarification.
During rule resolution, if two or more date-circumstanced versions are candidates at the current time and date, the application selects the candidates with the nearest end date. Of these, if multiple remaining candidate rules have the same end date, the application picks the candidate with the most recent start date
Thanks Kautukshet for the answer and clarification given.
Glad it helped.
I think one from April to September
