Overview
Business Rules perform If/Then tests with and/or operators.
Procedure
- Go to Administration > General Settings > Business Rules. To add a new rule, click the Add button .
- The following window is displayed:
- In the following example, the rule will always set the Priority to High if the End User is Elizabeth Pearson. She is considered to be a VIP and we want the High Priority regardless of what it is set to manually. Enter the rule name, a short description and set a priority. Priority in this context defines the sequence in which rules will be executed, lowest number to highest. To make this business rule active, check the Enabled checkbox.
- Select a column name in the Select Criteria menu. Select a condition in the Conditions menu. Enter a value in the value field or select it from a list, if applicable. Click the Add button to add it to the list of criteria. This is most important, otherwise the criterion will not be saved.
- When saved, the criterion will appear in a list. Note that multiple criteria can be defined in the one Business Rule. Also note the two options Match All (AND) and Match Any (OR), which will define whether all the specified criteria or any of them will be tested.
- Similarly, select an action from the Select Action menu and enter a value in the value field or select it from a list, if applicable. Click the Add button to add it to the list of criteria. Again, this must be done to save the action. Multiple actions can be defined in the same Business Rule.
- Click the Save button to save the Business Rule.
