Business rules on Common Data Service for Apps entities make it possible to visually define server-side business logic for canvas and model‑driven apps.

Use business rules to:

  • Set default values for form fields based on logical parameters.

  • Create simple and multi-step validation logic for any entity field, or for a combination of fields.

  • Trigger workflows and other processes directly from rule logic.
