Updated on April 5, 2022

Apply functions and more advanced logic in When rules by editing the conditions in the legacy authoring mode.

Before you begin: Enable the legacy authoring mode for the rule that you want to edit. For more information, see Creating a When rule.

By default, when you create and edit When rules, you use the condition builder view. For more information on how to define conditions, see Defining conditions for a When rule.

  1. In the navigation pane of Dev Studio, click RecordsDecisionWhen, and then open the rule that you want to edit.
  2. On the rule form, double-click the link below the When node.
  3. In the first field, enter a property, a literal constant, or a function call.
  4. In the second field, select a comparator.
  5. In the third column, provide a value that you want to compare with the value from the first field:
    • Enter the value.
    • Click Select values, and then select the value.
    For example: Status work is equal to Done
  6. Optional: To configure advanced conditions, press the Down arrow button, and then select a condition from the list.
  7. Click Submit.
  8. Optional: Develop the rule by clicking Actions, and then performing one of the following procedures:
    • To update the condition, click Edit.
    • To add another condition, click Insert condition.
    • To create a group of nested conditions, click Insert group.
    • To delete the expression node, click Delete.
  9. Click Save.
Result: The system displays the conditions and logical operators that you enter on the Advanced tab in the Condition array and the Logic String field.
