Understanding condition statements

Condition statements are defined in event profiles and rule sets. A condition statement uses the IF command and produces a Yes or No result. The statement may be continued using an OR command.

A condition statement contains some or all of the following fields, depending on the command: Command, Value 1, Operator, Value 2.

For example:

An IF condition statement enables a selected data item, identified in Value 1, to be compared against any of the following in Value 2:

• another data item - for example, If Account Code = Supplier Code
• a literal value - for example, IF Account Code >= 64000
• a masked literal value - for example, IF Account Code = 64***
• a workspace value - for example, IF Transaction Date >= Work Space Date 1
• a keyword - for example, IF Account Code = SPACE.
