• Yes, it is possible. However, migrating from youCalc rules engine for HRIS to Business Rules for Workflow Derivation requires careful planning and testing, as this is a manual process.
• There is no automated way for partners or customers to migrate from youCalc to Business Rule Derivation for Workflows. There is no confirmed auto migration on the roadmap for a future release.

Some tips for migrating:

• We recommend carrying out the migration in a test/dev instance first. This will allow you to prepare the required business rules and carry out the necessary testing to ensure that the outcome matches the expectation.
• For examples of how to map existing YouCalc Rules to Rules in the Business Rules Framework, please review the following section of the guide: Mapping Existing YouCalc Rules to Rules in the Business Rules Framework
• Once the rules are created and have been tested carefully in a preview/development instance, they can be moved to the production instance before enabling "Enable Business Rules for Workflow Derivation".
• If any issues are identified after enabling "Enable Business Rules for Workflow Derivation", it can be temporarily disabled by unticking "Enable Business Rules for Workflow Derivation" until fixing the issue.
