Why is it important that users be able to interact with fields that are being evaluated by a rule within Events?
The correct answer is C. If a user cannot interact with an evaluated field, he cannot trigger the action included in an event. In RSA Archer Events, a rule evaluates field values to determine whether to fire an action; if a user cannot interact with the evaluated field, they cannot change its value and thus cannot satisfy the rule condition.
Question
Why is it important that users be able to interact with fields that are being evaluated by a rule within Events?
Options
- AOnly fields that all users can see can be evaluated within a rule.
- BThis is a non-issue, as only administrators are able to configure events.
- CIf a user cannot interact with an evaluated field, he cannot trigger the action included in an event.
- DIf a user cannot interact with all fields, he cannot save the record, and therefore, cannot trigger

Why each option
In RSA Archer Events, a rule evaluates field values to determine whether to fire an action; if a user cannot interact with the evaluated field, they cannot change its value and thus cannot satisfy the rule condition.
Universal visibility across all users is not required; only the specific user interacting with the record needs access to the evaluated field for the event to be triggered.
Regular users trigger events through normal record interactions, not just administrators; administrators only configure events.
RSA Archer Events use rules that monitor changes to specific field values within a record to decide whether to trigger a configured action. If a user lacks the ability to view or edit the field being evaluated by the rule, they cannot alter its value. Without that change, the rule condition is never satisfied and the event action never fires.
Inability to interact with a single evaluated field does not inherently prevent saving the record; it specifically prevents the user from satisfying the rule condition that fires the event action.
