Linking Business Requiemnets to Business Rules 

Hi there,

What is the best practice in terms of relating business rules to requirements within the (business) requirements document? I have been asked to link business rules to requirements but the business rules relate to multiple requirements and vice-versa. However, I am uncomfortable doing this as I feel it can relate to confusion and unwanted complexity.

Please could someone also give any advice/feedback on the cross referencing feature of word? Could it be used to do the task above (linking business requirements to business rules)?

Much Appreciated.

Cheers

Shiro

Re: Linking Business Requiemnets to Business Rules 

Business Requirements are largely required manual and/or automated behavior to a higher level of abstraction.     Business rules related to required business behavior at a more detailed level.   The key to linking them together is a logical, natural partitioning (decomposition) from the higher level to the detailed.

Unfortunately, such decomposition is based on an interface (input/output) analysis that strikes the fear of God in most BA's.   Good luck, you are being asked to do something that your bosses cannot/will not do themselves.
