Condition Builder#

The Condition Builder is a visual interface used to define “Yes/No” logic. It is most commonly found inside the Check block, but it is also used for filters and trigger conditions.

How it Looks#

Instead of writing complex code, you build conditions using a structured, row-based interface. Each row represents a single logical check.

Building a Condition#

A single condition row consists of three main parts:

1. Field/Value: What you are checking (e.g., Status or Grand Total).
2. Operator: How you are checking it (e.g., is, is not, is greater than, contains).
3. Comparison Value: What you are checking against (e.g., Open or 1000).

Powered by the Smart Value System#

For both the first and third parts of a condition, you use the Smart Value System. This allows you to:

• Pick fields directly from the document using @doc.
• Use variables calculated earlier in the rule using @rule.
• Enter static text or numbers.
• Use resolver functions with / for complex comparisons.

Grouping Logic (AND / OR)#

Rules often require checking more than one thing at a time. The Condition Builder uses Groups to handle this.

• AND Groups: All conditions in the group must be true for the whole group to be true. (e.g., “Status is Open” AND “Total > 1000”).
• OR Groups: Only one condition in the group needs to be true for the whole group to be true. (e.g., “Customer is VIP” OR “Order is Urgent”).

Nested Groups#

You can add groups inside of other groups to create complex logic. The UI represents this with indented boxes, making it easy to see which conditions belong together.

Visual Structure#

• Add Condition: Click the + Condition button to add a new row to the current group.
• Add Group: Click the + Group button to create a new nested AND/OR block.
• Toggle Logic: Click the AND/OR label at the top of a group to switch the logic for all rows within that group.
• Delete: Use the trash icon next to any row or group to remove it.

Example: Complex Approval Logic#

Imagine you want a rule to run if: (The Order is from a VIP Customer) AND (The Total is over $5,000 OR the Order is marked as “Urgent”)

In the Condition Builder, this would look like:

• Group (AND)
  • Row: Customer Type is VIP
  • Group (OR)
    • Row: Grand Total > 5000
    • Row: Priority is Urgent

Validation#

As you build, FlexiRule checks your logic. If you leave a value empty or use an operator that doesn’t make sense for the field type (like using “Greater Than” on a text field), the builder will highlight the error so you can fix it before saving.
