Global Rulers

Normally, rulers are defined for a specific user and job report. However, certain users can be authorized by the INCONTROL administrator to define global rulers. These are rulers that are not restricted to use with a specific user and job report.

While global rulers can only be created, modified or deleted by authorized users, all users may access and use them during report viewing.

A global ruler is identified by a dollar sign ($) at the beginning of its name (for example, $JOBCHK). The $ character is specified as part of the Ruler Name in the Exit Option window when the ruler is saved.

Your INCONTROL administrator can tell you if there are any global rulers that are available for your use.
