Configuring a New Motivation

The following options are available when configuring a motivation:

Name and Reference
A name and reference must be specified when creating a new motivation. The name uniquely identifies the motivation. The reference is used to reference the motivation in code.
Script and Schema
An IEG script must be defined for the application which is used to collect the answers to the application questions. A script name must be specified in the Script field. A data store schema must be specified to store the data entered in the script. A schema name must be specified in the Schema field. On saving the motivation, an empty template for both the script and schema will be created by the system based on the Script and Schema specified. It will then be possible to update these from the Motivation t by selecting hyperlinks provided on the page. Clicking on the Question Script link will launch the IEG Editor which will allow the question script to be edited. Clicking on the Schema link will launch the Datastore Editor which will allow the schema to be edited.
Ruleset

To process the data in the data store and to produce a result, a CER rule set must be specified. Once specified on creation of the motivation, an empty rules template will be created by the system. It will then be possible to update the ruleset from the Motivation tab by selecting the hyperlink provided on the page. Clicking on the link will launch the CER Editor which will allow the ruleset to be edited. For more information on writing motivation rule sets, see the Cúram Universal Access Customization Guide. For more information on using the CER Editor see the Working With CER Guide . For more information on the IEG Editor see the Working With Curam Intelligent Evidence Gathering guide.

Result Schema
The running of a motivation results in a set of results. These results(the result of a ruleset execution) are stored in a data store. The Result Schema allows for a schema to be specified for these results which allows for the extension of the information generated as a result of running rules.
