Use the Business Rule when the process needs to evaluate a predefined business rule or decision. It uses the Evaluate Business Rule activity, which consumes a Business Rule defined in Orchestrator. The business rule has to be modeled using Decision Model and Notation (DMN).

Note: The Business Rule activity corresponds to the Business Rule Task element in BPMN.

The Business Rule activity is recommended for determining next steps based on criteria such as policy compliance, credit checks, or conditional routing. The following example shows how you use it within the context of approvals and determine the path based on region or cost data:
