    style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial&quot;>During the&amp;nbsp;inception phase and especially the
    business modeling activities, it is recommended to log in a table format the reference to decision point within a
    business process. This template is used to present and organize the groups of rule for a business
    perspective.&lt;/span>&lt;/span>

    &lt;span style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial&quot;>Decision point&lt;a
    id=&quot;XE_decision_point_table__template&quot; name=&quot;XE_decision_point_table__template&quot;>&lt;/a> represents a group of business
    rules that we need to consider in the scope of the rule discovery and analysis.&lt;/span> The group is built from the
    business logic, a step in the business process or in a use case. This is the concept of &quot;Decision Point&quot;. To search for
    decision point, look at verbs&amp;nbsp;which involve mental processing or thinking like check, qualify, validate, diagnose,
    process, decide, assess, compare, determine, evaluate, ... For example a decision point will lead to one or more rule
    set.
