16.4. Rules and Spreadsheets

As each row is a rule, the same principles apply as with written code. As the rule engine processes the facts, any rules that match may fire.

It is possible to clear the agenda when a rule fires and simulate a very simple decision table where only the first match effects an action.

You can have multiple tables on one spreadsheet. This way, rules can be grouped where they share common templates, but are still all combined into one rule package.
