Changing the execution order of basic rule associations

When you have multiple basic rule associations for a business entity field, set their order of execution to obtain clean and correct data. For example, if you want to concatenate the first name and last name of a person, you might need to validate the length of the strings first. In this case, you first run the rule association to validate the length of the names, and then run the rule association to concatenate the names. If a business entity field contains basic and advanced rule associations, the basic rule associations run first.
