Exergue
If the claimed non-technical features do not interact with claimed technical features such that they produce a further technical effect, for the assessment of inventive step one may
- either include the corresponding aim to be achieved in a non-technical field in the formulation of the problem as part of the framework of the technical problem that is to be solved,
- or else take the corresponding business scenario as the starting point for the problem and solution approach (see reasons 3.2.2).
