A process name must begin with a letter. It can contain alphanumeric, space, underscore, and hyphen. The name cannot contain other special characters like @ or !. NOTE: BRP names are case sensitive and limited to 75 characters. TIP: It is important to establish a naming convention before you engage in the development of BRP processes. You define business rule processes from the Business Rule Processor screen. You can either revise an existing process or create a new one. A business rule process is made up of procedures and properties. A BRP process can have one of three statuses: In progress, Active, Inactive. Only a process in the In-progress status can be modified. Processes in Active status indicate that the process definition is released for execution. An Inactive process indicates that the process is in no longer in use and has been retired. NOTE: The status of process indicates its edit disposition rather than its current run-time execution status. Additionally, all BRP process definitions are cached in the object manager across all login sessions to improve scalability. Hence, if any modifications are made to the process definitions these will not be available to the run-time sessions until the cache is refreshed. It is recommended that you put in place procedures to promote BRP processes from development to production and establish controls on how the cache will be refreshed. You can import and export business rule processes. This makes migrating process definitions across development and production environments easier. The process is saved as an XML file for importing and exporting purposes. This step is part of Process of Defining Business Rule Processes.
