Preconditions

In the Business console, you can use preconditions to check incoming data, and define variables for decision tables.

You use preconditions to check incoming data to determine whether a decision table can process the information. You can also use the preconditions to define one or more variables for the decision table. The variables are used in only the decision table.

Setting preconditions

To change the preconditions, click Preconditions. One of the following dialogs opens:

  • Define Preconditions: Opens if the table is new, or the table does not have a precondition.
  • Update Preconditions: Opens if the table has a precondition.

Use the rule editor to create or modify the preconditions, and click Define or Update to apply your changes.
