Business rules can be used to build complex business logic without programming, and automate and optimize business decisions.

For example, a store offers the following discounts:

• 5% for purchases between £100 and £1000
• 10% for all purchases above £1000

You can use the following logic to calculate the amount to pay after discount:

IF Amount >=100 and <=1000 THEN Discount =5%
IF Amount > 1000 THEN Discount = 10%
Else Discount = 0%
Amount to Pay = Amount - (Amount/ 100) X Discount
Return Amount to Pay

A business rule includes the following elements:

• Inputs
• Rule Conditions
• Output

You can create, copy, modify, delete and unlock business rules. You can also view, unlock and delete a business rule version, and revert to a previous version of a business rule.
