# Global Rules Explorer Tab

The Global Rules Explorer tab allows you to view global business rules and their associated files. You will be able to view global rules, overrides of rules, CopyBooks and functions contained for the various rules. Overrides for rules include company, plan, transaction, fund and state level overrides.

To view a rule, just expand the rules folder and double-click on its XML file. The configuration will display in the Configuration Area.

The Business Rules, Transactions and Segment folders all have a right-click Refresh option. If you select one of the three main rule folders, you can click the Refresh button to update your view of the rules. Any recently added or revised rules that other configurors have been working on will display.
