Defining Business Process Data

Buiness process data represent the required data structure of the business data used in the Business Process.

We recommend creating business process data of you want to integrate Technical Processes in your BPM process and want to work with a predefined data structure in these Technical Processes. For the example process described here, the business process data is required to create a decision table and an associated rule. For more information, see Creating a Decision Table and Inserting a Rule .
