  1. In the DQ Repository tree view, expand Libraries > Rules.
  2. Right-click SQL.
  3. From the contextual menu, select New Business Rule to open the New Business Rule wizard.

  4. In the Name field, enter a name for this new SQL business rule.

    Avoid using special characters in the item names including:



  5. Set other metadata (purpose, description and author name) in the corresponding fields and then click Next.
  6. In the Where clause field, enter the WHERE clause to be used in the analysis.
    In this example, the WHERE clause is used to match the records where customer age is greater than 18.
  7. Click Finish to close the New Business Rule wizard.
    A sub-folder for this new SQL business rule is displayed under the Rules folder in the DQ Repository tree view. The SQL business rule editor opens with the defined metadata.
    Note: In the SQL business rule editor, you can modify the WHERE clause or add a new one directly in the Data quality rule view.
  8. If required, set a value in the Criticality Level field.

    This will act as an indicator to measure the importance of the SQL business rule.
