How to write a Business Use case
The business use case is a description of how a person who uses the process or system will accomplish a goal. Business use cases are popular techniques for documenting and understanding system requirements, and I will teach you how to write them in a good and valuable way by following these steps:

Identify the Actors
Identify the Goal
Define the Pre-Conditions and Post-Conditions
Describe the Main Flow
Describe the Alternate Flows and Exceptions

The main purpose of writing a use case is to explore and highlight the value of your business, industry, or system.
Use cases can be valuable tools for understanding a specific system's ability to meet the needs of end-users.
Use cases can also be effective for product marketing purposes.
The project asks the student to apply what he/she has learnt by writing a business use case document.

I will be available to answer students' questions so send me your questions in a message.

Good Luck to all students
