Please, share the rule with @lucio.lelii@isti.cnr.it (I'm not allowed to do that).

Re error messages, I see it is not "user friendly".

For the sake of completeness, the rule is as follows

 Equals(Soundex($[Text]),Soundex("skj"))

Please, do take into account that rules do not modify the tabular resource / column ... they are just a filter applied on the values.

However, this does not justify the error message.

I propose to

• @lucio.lelii@isti.cnr.it to report the right rule to write to perform a replace;
• @g.panichi@isti.cnr.it to open a feature ticket in gCube to improve the quality of the error messages. The error message is intended to give information to an end-user. In this case, the error was due to an invalid rule that the service cannot apply to the type of values contained in the column. So the service replies with an error message but the front-end has to digest this error message and report something useful to the user without alerting him/her.

To perform a replace applying a rule is not the correct operation, rules performs only validation on columns. The right operation is the "replace by expression" operation on the column.
