Would you mind sharing which rule-based system you're working with? IMO Answer Set Programming is very useful for things like this. The language is small and maps straightforwardly onto intuitive ways of thinking about rules. It's closer to Prolog than things like CLIPS but really neither forward- nor backwards-chaining. It's hiding all operational specifics from you, which makes it very scalable as a representation. I think it's something many teams would do well to reach for when they take a first stab at implementing business logic in a rule-based format.

For the moment it's just a tiny language and interpreter I've been building, taking inspiration from other rule-based systems. We wanted something that'd run in our application and we're running PHP (:-/) so I didn't have too many options. (I'd really love to open source it once it's complete, but we'll see.) I'll have to look into Answer Set Programming more as I havn't seen it before. Thanks!
