Business rule

Business rule enables you to define business logic using conditions and other parameters. The logic aims to support business processes that need to be incorporated when creating and providing information for products, materials, requests, among others.

You can create business rules to build basic data entry validation and mandatory field checking. You can define what fields are required during data creation, or what specific brands are shown for a given category, for example.

When creating business rules, you define a condition based on an entity, a role, or a required field, then define actions to take when a certain condition is met, or another action to take when the condition is not met.

You can add multiple conditions to a business rule. While you can nest conditions (condition within a condition), it is better to keep your conditions simple for easier maintenance.

You can create business rules for styles, materials or trims (overview tab fields), and requests (for select fields only - Reason, Reason Code, Request For, Request ID, Request Type, Status, and Subtype).
