• Key Concepts: 
  A rule is a set of conditions and actions that are used to control the behavior of a workflow. Rules are used to define the conditions under which a workflow will be triggered, as well as the actions that will be taken when the workflow is triggered. Rules can also be used to define the order in which tasks are executed, and to control the flow of data between tasks. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Rules can be created in the LOD-BPM-WFS Workflow Service Runtime / Editor. To create a rule, select the “Rules” tab and then click “Create Rule”. This will open a dialog box where you can enter the conditions and actions for your rule. Once you have entered all of the necessary information, click “Save” to save your rule. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating rules, it is important to consider how they will interact with other rules in your workflow. For example, if you have two rules that both trigger on the same condition, you should make sure that one rule does not override the other. Additionally, it is important to consider how your rules will interact with other tasks in your workflow. For example, if you have a task that requires input from another task, you should make sure that your rule does not prevent this input from being received.
