Apply Suppression and Summarization Rules

When creating or editing a connector, you can select suppression and summarization rules to apply to events handled by the connector. Any suppression or summarization rules you add are applied before the events are transmitted to the CA User Activity Reporting Module server.

To apply suppression or summarization rules

1. Open the connector design wizard and advance to the Apply Suppression Rules step, or the Summarization Rules step.

   A list of available suppression rules appears.

2. (Optional) Type in the rules pattern entry field to search the available rules. As you type, the rules that match your entry are displayed.
3. Select the rule or rules you want to apply, using the shuttle control.
4. Advance to the step you want to complete next, or click Save and Close.

   If you click Save and Close, the connector appears in the connectors list.
