Is it possible to specify different rule in execution action of a rule?

For example, if rule A is executed, I want to specify and execute another rule B.

I searched forum but couldn’t find answer.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Generally, rule A could trigger some action (set a custom field, perhaps), that rule B looks for in its When or If trigger.

Rule B should allow Trigger via other rules:

Thank you for your reply.
I’ve been aware of that feature for a while.
What I was thinking about now is how to execute Rule B by specifying it from Rule A.
Since it seems possible to specify and execute an external action in the rule execution action, I wanted to do the same with another rule.
However, I seem to recall reading somewhere that calling a rule from another rule carries the risk of creating an infinite loop.
(I’ll think about it a bit more and, if necessary, I’ll suggest it in product feedback.)

I think you’re correct in all those areas, @ka_nishiyama. So I think a English Forum > Product Feedback request would be the next step if you want.

Thanks,
