Conditions

Previous  Home topic  Next  Print this topic Send Feedback

We recommend first reviewing the Formulas and General Use of the Editor topics as they cover several important concepts that are shared with conditions. Conditions are managed in the same way as formulas with an important difference:

 

Formulas return a specific value;

 

Total Age = My Age + Spouse's Age (the formula here is My Age + Spouse's Age)

 

but conditions return simply true or false;

 

If My Age > Spouse's Age (Age > Spouse's Age is the condition, it is either true or false)

 

A condition is used in one of the following contexts:

 

Simple branch
Multiple branch
Workflow diagram (condition used for transitioning from one stage to another)
