A business
rule flow is a logical collection of multiple
rule sets that define multiple conditions and actions. In general, the rule sets in a rule
flow are executed in the order in which they are defined in the rule flow. However,
with complex
rule flows, certain sections of rule sets are usually executed more times than others.
See Simple Rule Flows, Complex Rule Flows, and BY Groups for more information.
After you publish a rule flow, other
applications can
deploy the published rule flows. The applications map terms used in the rule flow to
table column in input data, evaluate the conditions in the rule flow, and
execute the appropriate actions.
