2. Provide a name for the rule.
3. Provide the order of execution in numbers.
4. *(Optional)CAT Time*: Provide the target CAT (Call Around Time) in HH\:MM\:SS format. The call will be made to the customers only during this time.

:::hint{type="info"}
Suppose a case where three different PACE states such as "state1", "state2", and "state3" have been created. After calling, the customer (say C1) is moved to from "state1" to "state2". If the PACE rule is applied again on the same customer (C1), then the customer will move from "state2" to "state3". But, if the Administrator wants to change the state of the customer (C1) back to "state1" from "state2" or "state3", then the Administrator has to create the rule and provide "0" (zero) values in both CAT and NCB fields.

Instead of adding zero as value, these fields should remain blank to decrease the unnecessary manual inputs.

To meet this requirement, the CAT and NCB fields in the PACE rules have made optional fields instead of being mandatory. (\*) symbol with these fields have also been removed.

5. If you want to set the Time before which no call should be made to the customers, then enter this NCB (Not to Call Before) Time in HH\:MM\:SS format.
6. Except "freshNumber", "catNumber", and "ns", you can select a customized state upon which the rule will be applied.
