Create Decision Model and Namespace

The Decision Model is a required resource in your project to enhance your process apps with decision services. The decision model is a file object with .dm file extension which you can reference in your business rule task of process model and execute the business rules in real time.

The Namespace is the placeholder to contain the unique business objects and decision tables that you create within your decision model. Every decision model that you create in your project must also have a unique Namespace. You can create only one Namespace for each decision model.

Perform the following steps:

  1. Launch ASG Studio.
  2. Open the project in which you want to create decision model.
  3. Navigate to the Decision Models folder.
  4. Click New from context menu and click Decision Model.
  5. Enter a name for the Namespace.
  6. Enter File Name for the decision model and click OK.

    7. The <decision model name>.dm file is created under the Decision Models folder. You can now add business objects to your namespace.

    The name can include only alphanumeric characters. The name can start only with a letter. The name cannot contain spaces. The name cannot be a single character. The maximum length of the file name is limited to 30 characters.
