    Use the following syntax instead of just RuleName,
    Workspace.<WorkspaceName>.<AssembleName>.<RuleName>

    Example- 

     

    XFBR(Workspace.MyWorkspace.MyAssembly.ParamHelper, CleanUsername)

If the assembly is inside the same workspace you can use "Workspace.Current".  Note that you do not need to specify the folder name as you cannot have the same file name i different folders.  I'm not sure if it actually blocks you from creating the same file but I'm fairly sure it will fail on compile.

XFBR(Workspace.Current.MyAssembly.FileName, FunctionName)
