    If multiple tasks are assigned to you, then select the task list from the quick-launch list. If the task includes a business rule, then the business rule page opens in a browser window.

  2. In the Business Rules area, select a business rule, and then click Launch.

    If the calculation is successful, then the values in the database reflect the calculation results.

  3. After a message confirms that the rule launched successfully, close the browser window.
