As explained here, ensure that you have defined the model’s properties. See CAST Architecture Checker - Configuring model properties. To update an existing package with a new rule, you must be working with a different model than those exported previously.

Summary: how to remove a Quality Rule Model as a single rule from an existing CAST AIP extension package.

Note

You cannot remove a rule from an existing CAST AIP extension package when this rule is the only rule in the extension package.
If you open the model with the rule that has already been exported into the package and which contains the rule you want to remove, the export tool will detect the rule in the existing package and mark it with the status “UPDATING” preventing you from ticking the “Remove” check box
If you open the model with the rule that has already been exported into the package but which does not contain the rule you want to remove, the rule in the current model will be updated in the existing package at the same time as the other rule is removed and perhaps you don’t want it to be updated
If you open a model with a rule that does not exist in the exported package it will be added to the existing package at the same time as the other rule is removed and perhaps you don’t want it to be added

Step 1 - Open the correct model

You must NOT open the Quality Rule Model that contains the rule you want to remove from an existing exported package. Note however the “Limitations of the Remove action” above.
