Ruleflows are a way to control the execution of business rules and decision tables. Ruleflows are stored as XML in files with the extension .rfx, and are part of a rule project. Ruleflows simplify the process of defining the sequence of rule execution by providing a graphical interface for designing the flow of execution. A ruleflow consists of linked tasks that contain the instructions for which rules to execute and in what order. Each ruleflow has a start point and at least one end point. The links between the tasks are called transitions.
