    Ability to update a tag property of a business business rule using the query actions

    No provision of updating tag names or values for a given business rule using action rules undermines the usage of tags in general. The only way to update the values currently is one-by-one as part of editing each business rule properties. This is ...

    Option to customize the user context menu in decision tables

    Since version 9 or 9.5, the 'Hidden' and 'Table Properties' options have been available to rules managers. Considering our usage of the tool, we would like to be able to modify the context menu from the business console in order to remove them. In...

    Currently, the cleanup tool (/v1/DBAdmin/cleanup REST API) helps reduce the database size when you have multiple versions of specific artifacts (such as DT or Test Suite). However the latest version and the original version remains in the database...

    Rule Consistency checks within Business Console

    In the Enterprise Console it was possible for the rule author to run a rule consistency check against a specific query or from the 'analysis' page. In Business Console there is no such feature.

    ODM RES "Creation Date" is from when the deployment artifact is kicked off from Decision Center and not when it was deployed to the RES.

    The "Creation Date" is from Decision Center, but from an audit perspective we need to be able to evidence when the ruleset was deployed to the RES. These times can be roughly the same if you push from directly form Decision Center to the RES, but ...

    ODM native support for password vault integration (ex. CyberArk)

    Have an option to include a default output at the end of the table if no other conditions match. Similar to an else/default in a case/switch statement, but for decision tables.

    Our team had been using the otherwise keyword to achieve a similar effect, but apparently this only works consistently when there are no blank spaces in multiple columns or if everything is in a single column? It would be nice for developers to ha...
