Introduction to Informatica Rule Builder
Rule Builder is an Informatica Analyst feature that converts business rules into logical objects that analyze business data. Data stewards and other desktop users use Rule Builder to design and store business rule objects in a software environment. Informatica Developer users connect the objects to the business data sources and run the objects on the data.
The business rule objects that you design are rule specifications. A rule specification uses a series of configurable icons called rule sets to represents the business rule logic. You configure the rule sets in the Design workspace of the Analyst tool. You use the properties of each rule set to define IF-THEN statements that represent the business rule requirements. You also indicate the types of data that the rule specification can apply to. The rule sets define a data flow that leads from the input data analysis to the validation of the data source against the business rule.
