A business rule is anything that imposes structure upon or controls the behavior of a business practice. A rule can enforce business policy, establish common guidelines within an organization, or control access in a business environment.
Business rules are developed and deployed using the Eclipse-based business rules editor in WebSphere® Integration Developer and managed and modified using the Web-based business rules manager, which is an option of WebSphere Process Server. For more information about these tools, see the appropriate topics in the WebSphere Integration Developer Information Center and the WebSphere Process Server Information Center, respectively.
