Abstract
An apparatus and method is provided for creating, updating, and deleting business rules with ease by use of a rule manager. Business rules are represented as tables that map a set of inputs to a set of outputs. Inputs are represented as enumerations with predefined allowable values. All possible unique combinations of values for a given set of inputs are automatically generated, and a business user can then set the outputs for each desired input value combination.
