Creating business rules

You can create business rules, that is, action rules, decision tables, or decision trees.

To create a business rule:

1. On the Compose tab, select the type of project element to create and then click OK.

   You can select action rule, decision table, or decision tree. For action rules and decision tables, you can also start from an existing template under Start from a template, if some are available.

2. In Step 1: Properties of the Compose Wizard, enter the name and other properties of your business rule and then click Next.
3. In Step 2: Contents, write the contents of the action rule, decision table, or decision tree.

   To write rules, you must be familiar with both the structure of action rules (see Action rules) and how to use the different rule editors (see Working with the editors).

4. In Step 3: Tags, add any tags you want to associate to the rule.
5. In Step 4: Override Rules, declare any rules to override.
6. In Step 5: Documentation, document your business rule.
7. In Step 6: Version information, enter the version information.
8. Click Finish.
