Conditional

Conditional constructs allow actions to be conditionally executed within the action diagram logic. Conditional constructs generally conform to nested IF THEN ELSE logic statements or SELECT sets. Conditional constructs are called CASE blocks because they are denoted by CASE and ENDCASE statements. Conditions that are more complex can be constructed using compound conditions. You use CASE blocks to execute actions based on the condition being tested. Actions within a condition construct are generated as inline code.

Condition constructs are denoted by brackets that enclose broken vertical bars.
