Business Rules Unavailable

Question

I am unable to gain access to the CAPEX module predefined business rules. I've updated shared services allowing the selected user user rights to planning and business rules. However, they still do not show up in workspace.
For instance: I'm using Form 2: New asset requests. The documentation is as follows:
➤ To request asset purchases:
1 Open the data form 02. New Asset Requests (see “Logging On and Accessing Capital Expense Planning”
on page 16).
2 Right-click an asset class, and select Add New asset.
If no assets exist, this message displays: “There are no valid rows of data for this data form.”
a. Right-click the message.
b. From the menu, select Add New Asset.
3 Enter details, such as asset class, description, number of requests (to plan for multiple asset requests of
the same value), Asset CAR#, priority, justification,
However, when I right click the message, "Add New Asset" doesn't appear. I have also noticed that the business rules are not populated under the form list on the left hand side of the workspace window. How can I gain access to these business rules?

Hi,
Depending on the version, check whether the business rules are actually created. A set of business rules must be available either in Calc Manager or in Administration Services console, Business Rules section. Unlikely but if they are not there, something must have gone wrong during capex enablement.
The other likely possibility is the security issue obviously. Depending on the version check business rules security either from planning (Tools->Business Rules Security) or from EAS console (security tab in the business rule if I remember correctly).
Cheers,
