Exam ECBA topic 1 question 160 discussion

Sources of business rules may be explicit (for example, documented business policies, regulations, or contracts) or tacit (for example, undocumented stakeholder know-how, generally accepted business practices, or norms of the corporate culture)

10.9 Business Rules Analysis Analysis of business rules involves capturing business rules from sources, expressing them clearly, validating them with stakeholders, refining them to best align with business goals, and organizing them so they can be effectively managed and reused. Sources of business rules may be explicit (for example, documented business policies, regulations, or contracts) or tacit (for example, undocumented stakeholder know-how, generally accepted business practices, or norms of the corporate culture).

10.9 Business Rules Analysis 7.4.4 .4 Relate and Verify Requirements Relationships Requirements may be related to each other in several ways when defining the requirements architecture. Business analysts examine and analyze the requirements to define the relationships between them. The representation of these relationships is provided by tracing requirements (see Trace Requirements (p. 79)). Business analysts examine each relationship to ensure that the relationships satisfy the following quality criteria: • Defined: there is a relationship and the type of the relationship is described. • Necessary: the relationship is necessary for understanding the requirements holistically. • Correct: the elements do have the relationship described. • Unambiguous: there are no relationships that link elements in two different and conflicting ways. • Consistent: relationships are described in the same way, using the same set of standard descriptions as defined in the viewpoints.
