What is the difference between Save As and Specialize by Class or Ruleset
Hello,
An existing rule can be saved as or specialized by class or ruleset. What is the difference between the two features?
I noticed that saving a rule as or specializing it by class or ruleset does exactly the same thing. Save as allows you to apply it to different class and save in a different ruleset.
Thank you.

Hi inakh,
Thank you for the reply. Your links helped me understand more about circumstancing a rule.
However, I am still not fully understanding "specialize by class or ruleset". It seems that "Save As" already allows you to specialize a rule by class or ruleset, so I can't understand why the "specialize by class or ruleset" feature is necessary.
When I open a rule and click "Save As", I am able to change the Apply To field (Specialize by class) and change the Add to ruleset field (Specialize by ruleset). But, for each rule, there are options for "Save As", "Specialize by class or ruleset", and "Specialize by circumstance" (See attachment).

Hi Micheal,
Please find below explanation for both functionalities :
Save As : Use the Save As form to copy an existing record's functionality to a new record with unique key parts. This form is pre-populated with the original record's key parts and creates default values for the new record's context.
specialized or circumstance rule : You can create a specialized or circumstance rule to create a variant of the rule that can be triggered only conditionally. The created rule is resolved and active only when the specified conditions are met. Create specialized or circumstance rules to address dynamic business requirements without changing the core logic every time.
