• Rule Resolution with responsibility: HELPFUL when a set of static positions are responsible for action.
• Rule resolution with Function (FM): Helpful when agents are determined dynamically from business logic.
• Rule resolution with OM: Usually used in CRM. Have not used
• Rule resolution with Function, but asynchronously: This is through a class and a method. Initially WI is created in status ready without agent. Later agent is assigned. This is suitable for agent determination having COMPLEX logic.
• Users: Rarely used.
• Role: Ex: ABAP_DEVELOPER
• OM objects (Position, Org Unit, work center)
• Expression: A container element containing the agents.
