Key Benefits
RuleXpress gives you a tool to capture business decision logic as a front-end to your IT projects. Because RuleXpress manages the vocabulary - the terms - that underlie all your rules you can ensure everyone is talking about the same thing the same way.
RuleXpress defines a blueprint for the concepts that underpin your business, ensuring everyone is working from the same definitions.
RuleXpress offers
- A way to manage your rules in your own language using business terminology not that of IT
- Non-technical, drag-and-drop user interface for managing terms and rules
- Integrated and configurable quality checks to make sure terms and rules are defined completely and accurately
- Collaborative environment with support for distributed teams, versioning and audit trails so nothing goes astray
- Distinguish between the business and IT perspectives and vocabularies so both communities are talking about the same rules while focused on different aspects of the problem
- Extensive reporting, extensibility and easy integration with third party tools to ensure easy and widespread adoption.
- Flexible filtering and reporting to generate HTML, Word or Excel reports tailored to IT or business audiences.
- Trace the original business rules to their implementation in a BRMS (like ILOG JRules or SAP BRFPlus) to improve business/IT collaboration.
- Management of cross-references and relationships for complete impact analysis
- Management of terms, rules, decision tables, rule group hierarchies and more
- Ensures accuracy by detecting conflicts, incompleteness, inconsistencies and circularities in rules
-
Detects semantic redundancy of rules and identifies similar rules based on semantics and linguistics, not just syntax
