Attaching an expression to an ILM business rule

Chapter 3 Using Business Rules in an ILM

Attaching an expression to an ILM business rule

A business rule typically starts out as a description. As you develop your model and analyze your business problem, you can complete a rule by adding a technical expression.

Each business rule can include two types of expression:

Server that can be generated to a database
Client that is used mainly for documentation purposes

Expressions are used essentially in a CDM or a PDM.

For more information on expressions, see chapter Using Business Rules in the Conceptual Data Model User's Guide and Physical Data Model User's Guide .
