In recent years, the Object Management Group (OMG)  has  focused  its  work  to  improve  the  business process modeling on multiple axes. The investigation in the domain  of  the  decision-making  has  resulted  in  its externalization through the invention of the Decision Model and Notation  (DMN). The latter, as presented  by OMG, is designed  as  a  supplement  to the  Business  Process  Model and  Notation  (BPMN),  to  model  decision-making  in business process.  DMN  covers  several  aspects  of  decision-making, but some factors are not explicitly mentioned, such as  harmonization,  synergy  and  uncertainty.  Since  the decision is based on modeling, serialization and integration of business  rules in the  business  process,  several questions arise  around  these problems.

In  this paper,  we  study the structure  of  business  rules  favoring  harmonization  of decisions  and  we  propose  an  additional  approach  for business  rules  serialization  through  NoSQL  databases, specifically MongoDB as a Document-Oriented database.
