In the display range to the right, the content of the currently marked rule is displayed.
You can create a new rule by clicking on the Add button and modify the marked rule by clicking on
the Edit button. With the arrow buttons (up / down) you can change the order in which the rules are
executed. The order of the rules is crucial if several search criteria apply to a change notification. In
this case, the corresponding action of the first applicable rule will be performed.
If the hit is a filter rule, the search for further applicable rules will be terminated.
For processing rules, the contained action will be performed and the search for further applicable
rules will then continue.
Tip:
With a double-click on an entry in the overview, a rule will open to be edited in the suitable editor
Each rule consists of search criteria and the actions to be performed.
● Search criteria
All criteria used within a rule are linked to each other with an AND relation.
Change notifications can be filtered according to the following criteria:
– Name of the (context) object
– Object type of the context object
– User action
– Name of the Line Server
– Windows / SIPLACE Pro user name
– Application name
– Comment category
– Comment text
– Suggestion: as comment category and comment text based on filter rules usually require
the entry of a comment, these should be defined as "Auto Reject".
– RAW-SPI Notification Event Data (the old EDM filter criteria)
– Name of the actually changed object (as FullTypePath)
– Properties
– Sub object type
– Associated Deletes
– Event type
● Actions
Here you define the treatment of the change notification.
– Transfer the change notification to the Clearing Pool?
– Open the dialog to enter a comment or use a pre-defined comment?
– Inform recipients by mail about this change notification and – if yes – which of them?
NOTICE
The format of the change notifications in previous EDM versions is not compatible with
the format of the new change notifications as of the EDM V2.1 version. Therefore,
change notifications of previous EDM versions have to be converted to the new format.
A description of how to convert data of previous EDM versions and detailed information about
creating and using the rules can be found in the EDM Installation Manual, item no. [00197193-xx].

files.
● It also allows the line engineer to enter comments for new notifications.
● It displays the confirmation dialog box in push mode.

5 Operation under Windows Vista®, Windows Server
2008® and Windows 7®
These more recent operating systems have resulted in a number of minor changes for EDM.
5.1 Separation of Installation Files and Variable Data in the File
System
Starting with the Windows Vista® operating system, Microsoft introduced separate subfolders for
"fixed" program files and data liable to change. EDM takes account of this change and creates the
two subfolders with variable data (logs and templateStorage) in the ProgramData%\ SIPLACE\
EDM folder by default.
5.2 Restarting the EDM Service
The EDM Tool provides a Restart EDM Service command. The user access control (UAC) facility
introduced in Windows Vista requests restricted administrators to grant enhanced permissions
before the service is restarted by the operating system. A regular user has the option of logging in
as an administrator temporarily to restart the EDM service.
