Designing Product Rules with a Business Rules Engine

Managing complex product catalogs and pricing models requires more than manual updates—it demands automated logic. This text-based course guides you through the core principles of using a Business Rules Engine to automate product configurations and validation. You will transition from manual setup to designing dynamic, rule-based product flows, understanding how to translate business requirements into logical rules that ensure users always select valid product combinations. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of Business Rules Engines and product configurators. - Create decision matrices and lookup tables to manage complex product dependencies. - Apply validation rules to prevent incompatible product selections. - Design dynamic pricing rules that adjust automatically based on user inputs. - Test and debug configuration logic using step-by-step written scenarios. - Implement version control and rule lifecycle management practices to keep configurations current. The course begins with essential terminology and the basic architecture of rules engines. You will then progress through structured written exercises to construct, test, and refine your own product rules. This program is designed for beginners, product managers, and business analysts looking to automate product logic without needing a deep programming background.
