# How to use Business rules

## What is Business rules?

Struct PIMs business rules engine is a powerful automation tool that allows you to automate processes within the system. A business rule consists of [basic settings](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details) and [rules setup](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details).

[Basic settings](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details) contain the name of the business rule, a description for the business rule and its active status. Meanwhile [Rule setup](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details) determines how the business rule should act through [triggers](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details/triggers/trigger-details), [conditions](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details/conditions/condition-details) and [actions](https://docs.struct.com/reference/settings/data-governance/business-rules/business-rule-details/actions/action-details).

Business rules can be found by navigating to Settings > Data governance and clicking on Business rules.
