Summary: にする (ni suru) is used to indicate that something has decided upon something. This can work with nouns and nominalized (words and phrases that have been converted into a noun) phrases. However, it is important to note that this grammar point can only be used when the thing that is being decided upon is under the subject or speaker’s control.
