Best practices in Business rules
A business rule is a rule that defines or constrains some aspects of the business model. Business rules describe the operations, definitions and constraints that apply to an organisation. A particular aspect of the business rule is that these conditions are in constant change. Build rules in a way that can be easily changed.
Business rules name convention
Use the following prefixes:
| Rule type | Prefix | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Visibility, required, editable, transition | ABC_Is | ABC_IsCustomerVIP, ABC_IsAllowed |
| Button Rule | ABC_Exe | ABC_Exe_CalcRates |
| Event Rule (On Enter, On Exit) | ABC_Evt | ABC_EvtProcessElements |
| Event Rule (On Save, Submit on change) | ABC_Sav | ABC_SavRecalculateFlags |
| Library Rules | Finance.CreateElements, Common.FilterElements | |
| Filter Rules | ABC_Fil | ABC_FilCustomerVIP, ABC_FilRequests |
Use policies
Business rules are in constant change. Use Policies instead of Expressions to allow end users to easily manage them from the Work Portal. Changes can be performed in real-time to instantly adapt to new business requirements.
Use vocabularies
Vocabularies can be used in Expressions or Policies. End Users can manage vocabularies through Work Portal.
