Data flow: Air Inc. to OpenText Decision Service, then back to Air Inc.
When an employee submits a request in Air Inc. such as leave, reimbursement, equipment purchase, or policy exception, the request is sent to OpenText Decision Service for rule evaluation. The decision engine checks policy thresholds, approval limits, tenure rules, or budget constraints and returns an approve, reject, or route for review outcome. This reduces manual screening and ensures consistent policy enforcement across HR, finance, or operations teams.

Air Inc. can capture incoming service requests or internal cases and pass key attributes such as request type, location, priority, and customer segment to OpenText Decision Service. The rules engine determines the correct queue, escalation path, or specialist team based on business rules. This improves first-contact handling, reduces misrouted cases, and shortens resolution times.

For purchase requests, travel expenses, or vendor onboarding tasks initiated in Air Inc., OpenText Decision Service can evaluate approval thresholds, department budgets, vendor risk flags, and exception criteria. Based on the outcome, Air Inc. can automatically assign the request to the correct approver, trigger additional review, or approve instantly. This helps finance and procurement teams enforce controls without slowing down routine requests.
Data flow: Bi-directional
Air Inc. can submit transaction or case data to OpenText Decision Service for compliance checks such as policy violations, missing documentation, or restricted conditions. If the rules engine identifies an exception, it can send the case back to Air Inc. with a required action, escalation reason, or remediation path. This is useful for regulated workflows where exceptions must be tracked, reviewed, and resolved consistently.

Data flow: Air Inc. to OpenText Decision Service
Air Inc. can send case details to OpenText Decision Service to determine priority based on business impact, customer tier, SLA risk, or regulatory deadlines. The returned priority score or routing instruction can then be used to order work queues and assign resources. This helps operations teams focus on the most urgent and high-value items first.

Business teams can update decision rules in OpenText Decision Service when policies change, such as approval limits, eligibility criteria, or escalation thresholds. Air Inc. continues to use the same workflow logic, but the underlying decisions reflect the latest rules immediately. This reduces development effort, shortens policy change cycles, and lowers the risk of outdated process logic.
These integration patterns are especially valuable when Air Inc. is used to capture requests, manage cases, or coordinate workflows, while OpenText Decision Service provides the decision intelligence needed to automate and standardize outcomes.
