Note Decision tables are also available as part of Business Rules Engine. If your org has Business Rules Engine enabled, see [Decision Tables for Business Rules Engine](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.decision_tables.htm&type=5&language=en_US).

After you define your decision table, activate it, which can take several minutes. The Last Activated Date indicates when the decision table was most recently activated. If you don't want to use a decision table, you can deactivate it.

![Important](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-decision_table-264-0-0-production-enus/b36b081a-a35e-4748-bca9-059568605a0b/images/icon_important.png)

Important If a decision table uses business rules from an object or a custom metadata type that contains more than 100,000 rows, the Decision Table can't be activated.

You can only invoke active decision tables in Flows.
