Hi,

I have a general question how to control execution using modules.

I have business rules that apply at the country (US) level, and rules that
apply at state level. What I would like to do is to apply country-level
rules first and then state-level rules second. The state-level rules will
overwrite some of the facts that were modified or asserted as a result of
the country-level rules.

I do NOT want to have any state-level rules applied before country-level
rules have a chance to fire.

I can group all the country-level rules in module COUNTRY and state-level
rules in module STATE. I understand that I can put (focus STATE) on the RHS
to move from one module to another to control execution flow.

Question: What should I do to ensure that I will switch to the STATE module
only after ALL APPLICABLE country-level rules have been applied (fired)?

I can use salience, but the book says that it's bad form. So I am wondering
if I should module.

Thanks.

Felix
