Necessary rule permissions

It is important to understand that a user who has only the rule import permission can import rules only. That user cannot resolve any rule conflicts that occur during the rule import. Solving a rule import conflict typically requires the creation of a new rule version. Thus, resolving rule conflicts requires the rule edit permission.

Guidewire separates these two functions (rule import and rule conflict resolution) as a security feature. For the same user to perform both of these functions, that user must have both the import rule and edit rule permissions.

If a user with the edit rule permission only attempts to take certain actions in the Complete Import or the Compare Rules screen, PolicyCenter displays an error message.
