the Rule Editor is used. For instance, within Job Creation, there can be data rules that are
based on record data belonging to a content item, but there will also be "location rules" that
deal with the position of a document within the job.
The Rule types are as follows:
l
Data Rule: This rule operates upon Data entries. Select the Data Field, then select the
logical test and the associated test value(s). The options available will depend upon the
Data Field type (they are "type aware"), but all have at least "is equal to" and "is not equal
to" to another entry as an option.
The data type specific options are as follows:
l
Alphanumeric data field specific selections: Whether the alphanumeric string
"contains", "does not contain", "starts with" or "ends with" another string value.
The "is like" and the "is not like" selections allow the use of "*" wildcards.
The comparison string could be a manually entered string, or it could be another
textual data field.
In the Data Filtering Options rules editor the comparisons are always case sensitive.
In other rule editors there is an option to turn of case sensitivity.
l
Date data field specific selections: Whether the date field is "before"or "after"
another date entry, or "not before" or "not after" another date entry, or "is between"
two other date entries. The comparison date(s) can be a manually entered date, or it
could be other numeric data field(s).
l
Numeric data field specific selections: Whether the numeric fields is "less than",
"less than or equal to", "greater than" or "greater than or equal to" another number
entry. The comparison number could be a specified number, or it could be another
numeric data field.
l
Media Rule: This rule operates on either the Media Name or coating (either Front Coating
or Back Coating) .
For the Name value, the choice is a straight binary option based upon the selected Media
Name.
For the Coating values, the choice is about what type of coating applies (with an
"Unspecified" option as a fall back).
l
Binding Rule: This rule operates upon the binding that applies to the record.
The options are based on the Style, Side, Location or Angle of the binding. The logical
operators that apply are dependent upon the type of Binding the test is being applied to.
