SSAE 7.1 Circumstancing question 5 explanation
Hello,
Rule Resolution is a very tough topic. I am not able to understand the rationale behind the answer for question 5 in the Circumstancing topic. Please help me. Thank you.
Here is the question:
Assuming all other factors are the same, which of the following “VacationDays” rules would be chosen by rule resolution, when .Country = Spain and “HRApp:01-01-05” is in the ruleset stack? (Choose One)
Rule = VacationDays (not circumstanced; “Base Rule” checked), RuleSet = HRApp:01-01-02
Rule = VacationDays (.Country = Spain), RuleSet = HRApp:01-01-01
Rule = VacationDays (.Country = Spain), RuleSet = HRApp:01-01-03
Rule = VacationDays (not circumstanced; “Base Rule” unchecked), RuleSet = HRApp:01-01-01
Rule = VacationDays (not circumstanced; “Base Rule” unchecked), RuleSet = HRApp:01-01-04
As per PDN answer is 3rd option.
Hi anurag,
From the options either 2 or 3 will be picked because only these two are satisfying the circumstancing condition .country="Spain" other options are base rules. Circumstanced rules will be given priority over base rules. As option 3 is in higher version it will be picked. So the final answer is option 3.
Thanks
