Rule actions

You define actions in the then and else parts of a rule. A rule action consists of at least one action phrase that the rule executes when the if part of the rule is true. It can also contain action phrases to execute when the if part of the rule is false.

You define actions in the following parts of a rule:

• then: This part defines actions that the rule executes when the if part of the rule is true or when no if part exists. When there is no if part, the then keyword becomes optional.
• else: This optional part defines actions that are executed when the if part of the rule is false. You do not have to declare an else part for a rule.

The then part of a rule must define at least one action. If the then or else part contains multiple actions, the rule executes the actions in their listed order.

Action phrases must pick a value for the decision to make. The decision is either represented by the decision keyword, or by the name of the output of the decision.
