Deactivate and activate a rule

Your system applies a rule as soon as the rule's conditions apply which means it is active. If you do not want a rule to be active, you can deactivate the rule. When you deactivate the rule, the system does not apply the rule even if the rule's conditions apply. You can easily activate a deactivated rule later.

1. In the Overview pane, select the rule.
2. Clear the Active check box in the Properties pane.
3. Click Save in the toolbar.
