Picking up from there, we will now look into creating If-Then-Else rules, which should also be familiar to people who know Oracle's old Business Rules. We will also create a service and call it from a process. Creating an If Then Else Decision As Input, I have created a TotalAmount object, which is the total amount of a...

And I hope I'll be able to write some more. But for starters, one of the problems I encountered is that I needed to process a list of something(s) and select elements from it. Or even better, how to build up a new list based on an input-list and some rules. Oh and do looping, or actually determine how...
