Creating a Precondition

You can apply a precondition to a processing group so that it is excluded from the process in Quality Rules Configuration when the precondition is not met.

  1. From the Compass, click the 3D Modeling Apps quadrant, and select Quality Rules Capture.
  2. In the Quality Rules Capture section, click Insert New Rule Set .
    Warning: If you do not create your precondition under a rule set candidate for Quality Rules Configuration, you will not be able to use it in Quality Rules Configuration.
  3. Enter the rule set name in the Title box.
  4. Check True in the Candidate for QCC App field. Click OK when done.
  5. In the Quality Rules Capture section, click Insert New Precondition .
    The Precondition dialog box appears.
  6. Enter the precondition name in the Title box and click OK.
  7. Enter the precondition body and click OK.
    ReturnBool = true

let profile(KWEProfile)
set profile = ThisPrecondition.GetProfile()

let context(VPMReference)
set context = profile.RootContext

let listDrawings(List)
set listDrawings = context.Query("Drawing", "true")

let NbrDrawing(Integer)
set NbrDrawing = listDrawings.Size()
if(NbrDrawing == 0)
ReturnBool = false
    Note: The above script executes the processing group only if the precondition is applied to an assembly containing a drawing.

    The precondition is created.
