Find out about the basic components visible in the Business
console: decision services, releases, activities, projects, branches,
and properties.
Decision services
A decision service contains one or more rule projects.
By working within a decision service, you gain easy navigation between
the linked projects of the decision service.
Releases
Because rules change over time, Decision
Center uses releases to
capture and trace all changes relating to a purpose and period in
time.
Change activities Decision
Center uses change
activities to manage the work of participants collaborating toward
a same goal, in the larger context of a release.
Validation activities
Validation activities are created and managed in the Business
console, and are used to track and manage a test plan for the release
and the results.
Rule projects
A rule project corresponds to a specific organization of
rules within folders.
Linked projects
The Business console allows for easy navigation between
linked projects.
Branches
Branches facilitate work on releases of a project.
Properties
A property associates additional data with a project element.
The properties appear in the Properties tab
when displaying a project element.
