Business algorithms that are relevant to the business area must be defined during DBAA (e.g., the calculation of interest on bank accounts or of the order quantity in an ordering system, or of an automobile insurance policy premium). In principle it is necessary to define an algorithm for every derived attribute type (given the fact that on the analysis level the derived attribute types have a business value and are not of a design nature).
Define each algorithm used within the process, unless it has been defined previously, in which case the existing algorithm should be reviewed. Do this as an action block, using process action diagram syntax.
Algorithm names are formed by adding "Algorithm" to the name of the attribute type derived (e.g., Order Total Amount is calculated using Order Total Amount Algorithm). This is a general guideline, not a rule.
