Business Rules
Centralise, document and execute your business logic
Business rules can be used to consolidate complex business decisions in a centralised repository. They can be used in a microflow to choose different paths through your business processes and simplify the microflow by delegating a complex decision to a separate rule.
Advantages
- Store business-specific functionality in a centralised repository.
- Quickly find and adjust key values, e.g. the order amount at which a manager approval is necessary.
- Re-use business rules instead of duplicating behavior in different parts of your application.
- Easily integrated with 3rd party business rule management systems (e.g. Corticon)
Technical Features
- Distinguish between business and system rules. Business rules are related to policy and processes while system rules are related to system checks.
- Business rules only check conditions and cannot inadvertently change data.
- Create decision gateways in microflow that use an underlying business rule.
