A public sector agency has implemented Agentforce Public Sector for managing their Grants program.

Decision Explainer is specifically designed to expose why Business Rules Engine produced a particular calculation or eligibility determination. Salesforce describes Decision Explainer as a collection of setup objects that provides transparency into business-rule calculations and supports agencies in explaining decisions to constituents.

When grant eligibility is calculated through Expression Sets and related Business Rules Engine components, Decision Explainer can retain the relevant decision context. Reviewers can inspect the Expression Set used, input values, calculations, and the resulting outcome. This is exactly what is needed when an applicant challenges a declined eligibility determination: the authority needs the reasoning associated with the actual application record , rather than attempting to reproduce the calculation separately.

Debug logs are primarily technical diagnostics. They may show execution details but aren't the business-facing explainability mechanism designed for caseworkers or reviewers and don't provide the same structured decision history. Testing representative datasets validates rules before deployment but doesn't explain why the particular constituent's submitted application was rejected. "Selection Explainer" is not the appropriate Salesforce Public Sector feature.

Decision Explainer therefore supports both operational transparency and governance by making automated eligibility and calculation outcomes understandable and reviewable.
