Dear all.
I am trying to model complex decisions that should trigger different events depending on specific conditions. There is, for example a deciti0on function followed by an OR rule (inclusive OR) which in turn is succeded by several events, lets say E1, E2 and E3. I tried the ARIS Business Rules Designer, i.e. a Business Rule object and an assigned Rule Sheet, and it worked fine for specifying the conditions. However, I was not able to have events in the actions section of the rule sheet. Did I just miss the point or did I try the wrong approach?
What I just want to have is a decision function with a decision table specifying rules of the following kind:
condition1 AND condition2 -> E1 AND E2;
condition1 AND condition3 -> E3;
....
I want to reuse events (or other object types if supported) to ensure referential integrity between the objects in an EPC and the decision table (i.e. renaming en event in the EPC is propagated to decision table as well). I already tried tried Matrix models but it was not possible to specify differing conditions for one event that has been put as a row heading (e.g. E1<-Cond1 OR E1<-Cond2) because the matrix model shows the relationships to every other object. I had events as row heading and conditions as column header with the cells indicating if condition holds true then trigger event XYZ.
Has sombody got further experience on this one? Otherwise I will have to use embedded Excel files for the decision tables.
Best regards,
Jürgen
