The Create New Correlation Rule dialog box displays the UI elements listed in the following table.

UI Element (A-Z)	Description
Active	Used to enable or disable the rule during runtime. By default it is disabled.
Base on RTSM View	Selects the view that you want to use as the basis for the correlation rule topology. By selecting a view, the Rule Topology pane displays only those configuration item types that are included in the view.
Display Name	Display name of the selected correlation rule used in the graphical user interface.
Description	Brief description of the correlation rule.
Name	Internal name of the selected correlation rule. Automatically generated from the Display Name value. The first character must be a letter (A-Z, a-z) or an underscore (_). All other characters can be a letter (A-Z, a-z), a number (0-9), or an underscore (_). Can be manually overwritten. Note Maybe disabled for certain locales (for example ja_JP, zh_CN, ko_KR).
Rule Weight	Specifies a weighting for the selected correlation rule. The default value is `Normal`. A TBEC rule with a higher weighting can override an existing cause-symptom relationship previously created by another correlation rule with a lower weighting.
Time Window	Specifies a specific time period for the selected correlation rule. By default it is not enabled and the global value is used. 0 seconds also means it is not enabled and the global setting is used. The range is from 0 to 9999 seconds.
