Publication format
Starting with version 0.8, the The AIXM Business Rules are provided in two formats:
- as an XML file, which preserves the information about "templates", which are used in the definition of the majority of the rules. The XML format is intended to be used for automating the development of data validation services, which could generate code directly from the SBVR structured rules and templates
as a table, in HTML and Excel, which are format. which is created by converting the original XML file into HTML and then importing it into MS Excel. The purpose of the Excel file is . This can also be imported in Excel, in order to facilitate the transition to the new syntax, as the previous versions have been published only in Excel format. Also, the Excel format is more convenient for human used, as it allows sorting and filtering of the rules.

In case of discrepancies between the XML and the Excel version, the XML version should be considered as the authoritative version. |
XML file
The new XML export structure follows the schema defined in the AIXM-BR-SBVR.XSD file, which matches with the following structure:

First, an XSL stylesheet is used to convert the AIXM-BR-SBVR.xml export file into a single HTML table, where templates are instantiated.

Excel
Finally, the HTML table was imported in Microsoft Word and then copied into Excel. Here, the file was sorted by AIXM Class, AIXM Attribute and AIXM Associations. In addition, filters have been defined for the various 'Profile' columns.
