Ronaldo, I'm not sure where in OpenUP you're referencing, but I think the distinction is SCOPE. "System wide Functional Requirements" are *global* - they apply to the entire system. The entire system must behave a certain way.
"Business Rules" might be associated with only part of the system. For example, there may be many business rules about a Register Member use case, but contradictory business rules for the Manage Member Profiles use case. There could be any number of reasons for this, such as different actors (perhaps one is an end user, the other a customer support engineer). Is there somewhere that this is too ambiguous in OpenUP? We can always submit a bug! :) Nate -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ronaldo r Sent: Monday, June 18, 2007 3:30 PM To: Eclipse Process Framework Project Developers List Subject: [epf-dev] supporting requirements What's the difference of "System wide Functional Requirements" section and "Business Rules"? What kind of rule fit in each of these? _______________________________________________ epf-dev mailing list epf-dev@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/epf-dev
