Creating a dictionary
A dictionary is an Oracle Business rules container for facts, functions, globals, Bucketsets, links, decision functions, and rulesets. A dictionary is an XML file that stores the application's rulesets and the Data model. Dictionaries can link to other dictionaries. Oracle JDeveloper creates an Oracle Business rules dictionary in a ''rules'' file.
Note
You can create as many dictionaries as you need. A dictionary may contain any number of rulesets.
Rules dictionaries are use to hold rule facts, functions, tables, and other components.
