Managing Business Rules

Managing business rules involves:

  • Editing or deleting business rules
  • Viewing mind maps
  • Viewing history

To manage business rules, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the list of business rules in your catalog.
  2. Use the following options:
    View Mind Map ()
    A mind map displays the pictorial representation of the business rule, its associations, status, data steward, and so on.

    Use the following options to work on the mind map:
    Expand: By default, a mind map is displayed up to the first level. To drill it down further, hover on a node and click the plus (+) icon or click Expand and select a level of expansion.
    Export: To save the mind map to .xls format or as an image, click Export.
    Filter: To filter the components of the mind map based on the asset type or relationship, expand the Filter section and select the appropriate filter criteria.
    Object Properties: To view the properties of an object in the mind map, select the object in the diagram. The Object Properties section displays the properties of the selected object.
    Relationship Context: To view information about a relationship in the mind map, select the relationship line in the diagram. The Relationship Context section displays information about the selected relationship.
