The Conditional macro is made up of one or more atomic conditions. Each atom tests the value of a single attribute. Therefore, if you want to define the condition based on the values for Assignee and Category, the Conditional macro probably uses two atoms, one for Assignee and one for Category. When you use a Conditional Macro in an event, the individual atoms connected with a Boolean operator, mainly ‘AND’ or ‘OR’.
The Conditional Macro Detail shows a list of Atoms, which is read from left to right as follows:
Attribute |
Operator |
Value |
Logical |
Translation |
---|---|---|---|---|
Assignee |
Equals |
Jones |
AND |
The assignee is Jones and… |
Cost |
Less than |
600 |
OR |
Cost is an integer value less than 600 or… |
Group |
Empty/NULL |
|
AND |
The Group field is blank. |
Note: Logical connectors (AND, OR) connect two atoms. When you have two atoms such as one and two, they connect by atom ones connector. Atom twos connector is not used. Furthermore, some Operator selections are not useful, such as when an attribute is an Assignee, and you use the Less than operator—it would not make sense.
