Reorder rule exceptions

Use this topic to change the order in which a rule's exceptions are evaluated.

Overview

Exceptions are evaluated only after their parent rule matches, and they are evaluated in order. When a rule has more than one exception, you can change the order in which they are evaluated.

Note: This topic assumes the rule already has two or more exceptions. To add a new exception to a rule, see Add exceptions to a rule.
