Element |
Description |
Name |
Displays the system generated rule name. Note: You can edit the rule name. |
Condition |
Displays condition based on business objective. You can select the required condition from the drop down list. |
Action(s) |
Displays different kinds of actions that need to be executed based on a condition. Select required action(s). The following actions are displayed and selected by default:
- Invoke Business Process: The Invoke Business Process action allows you to trigger a process using a rule. All you need to specify is the name of the process and the message to be sent to the process. For example, a customer has placed an order. When the order enters the CoBOC, a rule is triggered, which checks whether the items exist in the inventory. If the items do not exist, the transaction aborts. If the items exist, the order processing business process is triggered. You can accomplish this by using the Invoke Business Process action.
- Call Web Service: When a customer places an order, you may want to invoke a Web service or SOAP request to calculate the discount. For this purpose, you can use the Call Web Service action.
- Notification: The role assigned to the user. A notification is sent to all users having the selected role.
Note: Depending on the selected action or actions, corresponding fields appear in the action configuration details group box.
