  • Key Concepts: 
    A default rule is a type of workflow rule in SAP Business Workflow. It is used to define the default behavior of a workflow task, such as who should be assigned to the task, when it should be completed, and what action should be taken when the task is completed. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Default rules can be created in the SAP Business Workflow editor. To create a default rule, select the “Default Rule” option from the drop-down menu. Then, enter the details of the rule, such as who should be assigned to the task, when it should be completed, and what action should be taken when the task is completed. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a default rule, it is important to consider how it will affect other tasks in the workflow. For example, if a default rule assigns a task to a specific user, then any other tasks that are dependent on that task will also be assigned to that user.
