Binding to Model

Binding Input and Output model to Decision Table in decision table designer.

Setting Up Binding to the Input & Output Model

After creating the input and output model, you need to bind these models to the conditions and results in the Decision Table Designer:

• Input Model: Bound to condition columns.

• Output Model: Bound to result columns.

You can select any leaf from the input/output model as a condition or result variable.

Note that you cannot select a root that contains any child as a condition/result variable.

Example of binding (Input Model):

// JSON Editor

{
  "delivery": {
    "distance": {
      "car": {},
      "ship": {},
      "plane": {}
    },
    "tariff": {}
  },
  "package": {
    "weight": {},
    "longestSide": {}
  }
}

Simple Editor:

From this Input Model, the following values can be selected as condition values:

• delivery.distance.car

• delivery.distance.ship

• delivery.distance.plane

• delivery.tariff

• package.weight

• package.longestSide

Binding Models to Conditions and Results

1. Navigate to the Decision Table Designer section.

2. To bind the Input Model to Conditions:

   • Create a new condition column.

   • Select the condition variable in the column header.

   To bind the Output Model to Results:

   • Create a new result column.

   • Select the result variable in the column header.

It is also possible to bind the condition columns to rule variables or calculation column variables. More information is in Table Designer.
