Abstract
Computer-implemented systems and methods are disclosed for providing a business rule repository in a memory. An exemplary method includes displaying, on a display device, a graphical user interface (GUI) for creating a business rule, and receiving, in a computer, via the GUI user input relating to an input variable of the business rule, and user input relating to an action required by the business rule based on the input variable. The method further includes generating, by the computer, a text document associated with the business rule based on the input, and storing the text document associated with the business rule in the business rule repository.
Claims25
A method for providing a business rule repository in a memory, comprising:
- displaying, on a display device, a graphical user interface (GUI) for creating a business rule;
- receiving, in a computer, via the GUI:
- user input relating to an input variable of the business rule;
- and
- user input relating to an action required by the business rule based on the input variable;
- generating, by the computer, a text document associated with the business rule based on the input;
- and
- storing the text document associated with the business rule in the business rule repository.
(canceled)
The method of claim 25, wherein the business rule repository contains text documents associated with a plurality of business rules, and the method further comprises:
- receiving a keyword-based search request;
- searching the text documents associated with the plurality of business rules based on the search request;
- and
- outputting results of the search.
A computer-readable storage medium storing computer program instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method for providing a business rule repository in a memory, the method comprising:
- displaying, on a display device, a graphical user interface (GUI) for creating a business rule;
- receiving, via the GUI:
- user input relating to an input variable of the business rule;
- and
- user input relating to an action required by the business rule based on the input variable;
- generating a text document associated with the business rule based on the input;
- and
- storing the text document associated with the business rule in the business rule repository.
A computer system for providing a business rule repository, the system comprising:
- a display device;
- a memory storing the program logic repository;
- a user input device for receiving input from a user;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- display, via the display device, a graphical user interface (GUI) for creating a business rule;
- receive, via the input device:
- user input to the GUI relating to an input variable of the business rule;
- and
- user input relating to an action required by the business rule based on the input variable;
- generate a text document associated with the business rule based on the input;
- and
- store the text document associated with the business rule in the business rule repository.
