Decision is an issue, which is also an aim, i.e. endeavors, such as issues, and other aims such as other decisions may be aligned to it.
Decision chaining can be done via alignment or via requires
dependency. Alignment indicates that the “premise” decision affects the aligned decision, but the aligned decision can be in effect if the premise decision is not in effect. Requirement dependency indicates that the requiring decision can be in effect only when the required decision is in effect.
Decisions can have effective dates and can be superceded by other decisions.
This class does not specify the decision making process. Future releases or extensions may provide decision subclasses which support different decision analysis methodologies, e.g. Multiple-criteria decision analysis methodologies such as Analytic Hierarchy Process or Weighted Sum Model.
Date when decision stops being in effect if it was in effect before. If not set, the decision is effective indefinitely if it is in a done status.
