Abstract
Techniques enable a user, such as a business analyst or a system administrator, to define business process rules that control the processing of transaction data by a computer application and to assign a collection of business process rules to one of multiple predefined points in a business process of a computer application. At runtime, when the computer system executing the computer application reaches a point in a business process that is associated with a collection of user-defined business process rules, the computer system executes the business process rules. In this manner, a customized process represented by user-defined business process rules is able to be added to a computer application.
