4. Define the rule by selecting the Filter type that holds Region/ Resource Group/ Resource Type/Tag with Operator and/or and the respective value fields for the same.
5. Click Add sub-rule to add a sub-rule and Delete rule to delete the rule added.
6. The Discard option will discard any new changes made to the rules and revert the rules to last saved state.
   
7. The rules can be validated by clicking on Validate rules and the validation further retrieves all resources that satisfies the configured rules.
