// STEP-BASED RULE DEVELOPMENT FOR P21

Build P21 business rules without writing code.

Add the steps a rule should take, test it against real values, and generate a deployment-ready DynaChange package — in minutes, not days.

Now demoing with Prophet 21 distributors — no commitment required.

A rule is a list of steps

Look up a value, guard a condition, branch a path, write a field, finish. Every step reads as a sentence, so the people who own the process can review the rule — then compile it to production-ready code.

// PROCESS

How it works

From idea to deployed business rule in four steps.

STEP 01

Start

Pick the P21 window the rule fires on, or describe what you want in plain English and let the copilot draft the steps.

STEP 02

Add steps

Build the rule one step at a time — look ups, conditions, calculations, branches, emails and field writes. Reorder them as the logic changes.

STEP 03

Test

Enter the values the rule reads and run it. The trace shows what every step did and whether the save is allowed. Nothing is written to P21.

STEP 04

Compile & deploy

One click generates the DLL, the DynaChange configuration XML and an install guide — a complete deployment package.

// CAPABILITIES

Everything you need to build rules

A complete platform for creating, testing, and deploying P21 DynaChange rules — no C# required.

F.01

Step Builder

Sixteen step types, from look ups and guards to loops, branches and emails. Each one reads as a sentence in the rule's outline.

F.02

Test Before You Deploy

Run the rule against values you supply and read a step-by-step trace of what happened. Queries, requests and emails are stubbed — nothing reaches P21.

F.03

AI Copilot

Describe the rule in plain English and get a draft set of steps to review, edit and test. You stay the author — the copilot just does the typing.

F.04

One-Click Compilation

Generate deployment-ready DLLs instantly with Roslyn-powered compilation and detailed error diagnostics. Read the generated C# any time.

F.05

P21 Field Integration

Sync field metadata directly from your Prophet 21 environment. Searchable field catalog at your fingertips.

F.06

Multi-Tenant Workspaces

Isolated workspaces for teams and consultants. Role-based access control with organization-level security.
