# Managing Rulesets

Rulesets are sets of rules that are created to help define the Policy. They combine the key building blocks and give values according to the Policy. A Ruleset is used to define which Dynamic Groups the Policy should be applied to; what conditions should be applied, etc.

## Creating a Ruleset

#### To create a Ruleset:

1. Select the relevant Authorization Workspace.
2. Click on the Asset & Conditions tab.
3. Click the Asset Type for which you wish to create a Ruleset. The Asset Type Settings screen is displayed.
4. From the selection menu, click **Ruleset**.
5. Enter a **Name** for the new Ruleset.
6. Enter a **Description** for the new Ruleset (optional).
7. Select an **Asset Attribute** that will be the basis for the rule. The Type (String or Numeric is automatically added)
8. Select the operator (options include: **Equals**, **Not Equals**, Contains, **Starts with**, **Ends with**,  **In**, **Not in**, **Greater than**, **Greater than or Equals**, **Less than**, **Less than or Equals**).
9. Set the **Value** either by selecting an existing option or adding a new one.
10. To add another Rule to the Ruleset, click **And** or **OR**. This defines the relationship between the new rule and previous rules in the Ruleset. As above, complete the steps for defining the new Rule.
11. Click **Save**.

Users can also view a list of Policies associated with the Ruleset by **hovering over the Ruleset** and clicking on the View Policy List button. This opens a page displaying a list of Policies using this Ruleset.
