why withdrawn rules are carry forwarded in minor skimming
Hi Foks,
Why the withdrawn rules are forwarded in Minor skimming, and Why withdrawn rules are not carry forwarded during a major skimming.
When the withdrawn rules are not available for execution, why those are carry forwarded in a minor skimming.
is there any logic behind this.

@JANAKIRAMA A withdrawn rule affects rules only in one RuleSet and one Applies To class. When skimming to a new minor ruleset version, the resulting ruleset version contains the withdrawn rule. Withdrawn rules are not copied forward during major skim operations since there will not be other instances in the ruleset name in earlier ruleset versions which need to be prevented from resolving. So if we have a rule and our ruleset versions are from 01-01-01 to 01-50-01 and applied to class is org-AppA-work-BAC, and if that withdrawn rule is not there in 01-50-01 and it is in 01-45-01 and we have that same rule available in 01-50-10 that means the rule is still available for resolution. So to prevent from the resolution for one RuleSet and one Applies To class Withdrawn rules are copied and carried while doing minor skimming. When we do major skimming, withdrawn rules will not be carried over and we can have that particular rule as a fresh one in 02-01-01.
But in case of blocked rules we need to prevent the blocked rule from resolution from other ruleset and other classes. That is why blocked rules are carried out in major skim also.
