A decision table is a way of visual mapping of possible flows of some decision, when there are a lot of variable conditions involved. The brain of an ordinary human has a quite narrow focus and we often fall short of keeping track of various combinations of things we are trying to form our decision for. The usage of decision table may help in visualising, not missing and organizing all possible variants of something complex you are trying to get a grasp on.
The decision tables are mostly used by business analysts, developers, and philosophers. But once you know how helpful this method could be, you start to use it in everyday life: from deciding when should you go for a milk, to understanding how to act in complex life situations.
Just write down all available variants in a few lines and put your opinion right next to each one - you have your first decision table. This works terrific when dealing with a few choises, but becomes unberable having a lot of them. This is when automated decision table software becomes really useful.
This free online decision tabler maker is pretty much the same as your piece of paper and a pen when you have all your variants. But it comes with an irreplaceable feature: it maps all possible combinations for you. This unberable and prone to error task is done seamlessly by a computer.
The interface of this broswer decision table tool is rich enough to make decisions right here. Use rows colors, type decisions, change colors and do decide.
Use "Print" button once set the combinations and continue on paper, just as you would do without any software, but being on a safe side: computer doesn't miss any option.
Use "Table" button once set the combinations, copy the table and paste it into your table processor. This way you have everything mapped plus the power of table processor - remove, group, and swap rows as you like.
