Type
The type of Business Rule (see below for a detailed description of each Business Rule Type)
Contains Global Functions for Formulas
Set this to True to write a function in a Business Rule and then call the function from Member Formulas or other Business Rules. This is helpful when the same code must be copied to multiple Member Formulas and instead of using the same complicated code, a Public function with two lines of code written in a Business Rule can be called. Only use this setting for Business Rules referenced from Member Formulas because it does incur some overhead when the system needs to compile Member Formulas.
For more details on this feature, see About the Financial Model.
Referenced Assemblies
Enter a list of referenced assembly names separated by semi-colons.
Reference Another Business Rule
To reference another Business Rule, enter BR\ followed by the other Business Rule name.

Example:
Dim sharedFinanceBR As New OneStream.BusinessRule.Finance.SharedFinanceFunctions.MainClass
Dim myResult As String = sharedFinanceBR.Test(si, api, args)
For more details on this feature, see Referencing a Business Rule from a Member Formula or Business Rule in About the Financial Model.

DLL files can be stored in the File Share’s Business Rule Assembly Folder, an Application Server Configuration File, or in a common Network Share Folder to which numerous Application Servers can reference. To reference a DLL File, enter XF\ followed by the DLL file name.
