What is SAP Business Rule Framework (BRF)?
SAP Business Rule Framework (BRF) is an event-controlled runtime environment that processes certain rules. Users can assign any number of rules to an event. A rule consists of a Boolean expression and an action. If the expression returns the value TRUE, the system executes the action. BRF also contains a maintenance environment that enables users to edit and configure BRF objects. Users can configure both technically oriented and business process-oriented rules. They can configure the rules in the maintenance environment, and the system processes the rules in the runtime environment.
BRFplus is the successor to BRF and is part of the SAP NetWeaver ABAP server. It provides an API and user interface for defining and processing business rules without the need to write ABAP [PETER, PLEASE LINK TO SAP ABAP LANDING PAGE] code. Users can model rules intuitively and reuse these rules in different applications. The interface between a business rule modeled with BRFplus and an application using that rule is provided by a BRFplus function, which serves as a container for the entire business logic of a rule. Rules are implemented as expressions that are assigned to a function. The rule input is known as context, and the rule output is called result. Context and result consist of the following types of data objects: element, structure, and table.
