The following example illustrates how you can use the Point Value node
to represent values from fields in different families for each policy
instance. Consider the following nodes and connection.
In this example, the Point Value node Cost represents cost values of various types. This model evaluates each cost value
to determine whether or not it is greater than 150.
The particular record and field containing each cost value are defined by policy instances. For example, you might create two policy instances, where:
- One policy instance maps the Cost
field from the Action family
to the Cost Point Value node.
- The other policy instance maps the Total Cost field from the Work History family to the same Cost Point Value node.
By using the Point Value node in this way, the policy can use one Input node to access values in multiple families and evaluate them against the same criteria.
