How to Execute Selective Rules in DvSum

Overview

In Data Intelligence (DI), rules help validate, cleanse, and monitor data quality. Sometimes, instead of running all rules at once, you may need to execute specific rules explicitly based on certain conditions.

By applying filters in the DQ Dictionary, you can isolate and execute only the necessary rules.

Steps to Run Rules Explicitly Using Filters

Step 1: Navigate to the DQ Dictionary Page

• Open the DQ Dictionary section within your DI environment.
• This section contains all configured Data Quality (DQ) rules in DI.

Step 2: Apply Filters to Isolate Specific Rules

• Use the search bar or filtering options to locate the specific rules you need to run.
• You can filter rules based on various attributes like Rule ID, Rule Name, Rule Type, or Status.
• Example: If you need to run DQ-0001234 and DQ-0005678, apply a filter to display only these rules.
• After filtering, only the relevant rules will be listed.

Step 3: Select the Rules

• Once the desired rules are displayed, select them by clicking the checkbox next to each rule.
• Ensure that only the required rules are selected before proceeding.

Step 4: Execute the Rules Using 'Run Rule'

1. After selecting the rules, click the "Run Rule" button located at the top right of the page.
2. A dropdown will appear with two options:
   • Run Online:
     • Executes the rule instantly and provides real-time results.

Note: If you change the tab while the rule is running, the process will get aborted.

• • Run Offline:
    • Runs the rule in the background (via a scheduler).
    • Results will be available after execution is complete.
    • Execution status can be checked later in the Job section

Note: This option is Recommended for large datasets or when running multiple rules simultaneously.
