Indent

To provide more clarity on the Indent feature, the following Expressions have been configured on the Approved Outcome of a Client Event. In this instance, both expressions will evaluate separately and from top to bottom.

Fig. 4. Succeeding Rule - No indent

In the following instance, the user wants expression 1 to be evaluated separately and 2 and 3 to be evaluated together. Select the Or operator on the Outcome screen and click Indent Right. This will ensure that the 2nd and 3rd expressions are evaluated separately from the first expression. In mathematical terms this would relate to the following:

All Slots of Action Result = Approved AND (At Least 2 of Authorization = True OR At Least 2 of Manager Override = True)
