liiketoimintasääntöä

Liiketoimintasääntö refers to a business rule. Business rules are statements that define or constrain some aspect of the business and are intended to assert business structure or control or guide business behavior. They are typically expressed in natural language, often in a declarative form, and are distinct from application code. Business rules can be used to capture policies, procedures, and decisions that govern how a business operates.

The purpose of implementing business rules is to manage the complexity of business logic and to ensure consistency and compliance. By separating business rules from the underlying application code, organizations can more easily adapt to changing business requirements without extensive reprogramming. This also allows subject matter experts, who may not be programmers, to participate in the definition and management of these rules.

Business rules can be categorized in various ways, such as constraints, triggers, or calculations. They can be applied in a wide range of contexts, including customer relationship management, financial services, insurance, and e-commerce. The effective management of business rules can lead to increased agility, improved operational efficiency, and reduced risk. Technologies such as Business Rule Management Systems (BRMS) are designed to facilitate the creation, deployment, and maintenance of business rules.
