When creating a new ruleset version, what extra step must the system architect perform?
Extra steps are unnecessary if the ruleset version is up to date.
Rulesets cannot be versioned.
Change the decision table item numbers.
Lock the ruleset to prevent automatic versioning.
What is the importance of application versioning?
Application versioning provides the ability to clone rules.
