Rule analyst reports

Fraud Protection provides Rule analyst reports that are designed to track the impact of Fraud Protection rules that you've enabled. The reports help you understand the transaction volume, distribution, and potential fraud trends by rule and clause. You can also use them to analyze decisions and performance by rule segment, and to compare the impact of observe rules and decision rules.
